Last night I was imaging and guiding was going great, no issues. I had ASIAIR Plus 2.1 all set properly to engage the auto meridian flip. But when my object transited across the meridian, the flip didn't happen. Somehow the mount didn't get the message. I am using the ZWO AM5 mount with the ASIAIR, which I've been having successful results with.
I suspect it might have to do with daylight savings time. I've always thought DST was one of the most idiotic ideas ever to exist, but now, I have another reason to dislike it because I can see it's impacting imaging. I know my settings in ASIAIR are correct regarding my longitude and latitude, and the time was correct well. ASIAIR was reporting that my mount's time was exactly one hour behind what the ASIAIR was showing (and the tablet's OS) which is what ZWO says is supposed to be the case.
So I have no idea why the flip failed. I did the flip manually and continued to image but I'd like to know how to get the automatic flip working again.
Thanks!
Jerry
