I recently upgraded from a Losmandy G8 to Losmandy G811 mount. I've been trying to plate solve unsuccessfully after the upgrade. Here's my workflow after the mount is connected to my PC:
1. Successful PA (Pole align)
2. Approximate focus (Manual, successful)
3. Blind Solve - Successful
4. Start the sequence: At this point, SGP starts its Plate Solve flow.
5. The solve fails with the error above. My log file is located here: https://drive.google.com/drive/folders/0B5dQyRvWibXZUmxlbmNHY1NCSVE?usp=sharingOther info:
1. Search for the word "LOSMANDY" in the log file - to see where solve starts and fails (I marked it)
2. Am using a Takahashi FS 60 with a reducer (Scale = 3.15) and a Nikon D7100.
3. This is just one example of the solve failing - it has been consistently failing at the same point for the last 2 attempts
4. I defaulted to Astrometry.NET (Local or Remote) - PlateSove2 doesn't seem to work.
5. In this example, the telescope starts to slew towards J2000 RA: 21.019525 (21h01m10.29s) Dec: 68.0746333333333 (68°04'28.68")....and ends up at DEC:43.5779012664 and RA:309.239078336.
