Note: The button that finally activates the 494 AutoStar is completely random, and another button will activates the 494 AutoStar next time it's turned on.Īnd when you get the chance, reset the 494 AutoStar to original factory settings: When the unit finally functions it will emit a beep followed by the "Initializing" message. Rarely does it require a second round to work.ĥ. Continue through all the buttons on the 494 AutoStar until the unit finally functions properly.Ĥ.
If "Motor Unit Fault" message appears, turn off the power.ģ. Press and hold the "ENTER" button on the 494 AutoStar, and turn on the power to the DS-2000.Ģ. Here's a solution I discovered, although it's a little funky:ġ. And neither of the internal motors worked at all. I also get the "Motor Unit Fault" message that appears on my Meade DS-2000 + Meade 494 AutoStar Hand Controller. Go here Weasner's Mighty ETX Site for everything about getting the best out of your ETX and how to deal with those pesky error messages. Batteries are a complete waste of time and are the largest source of motor errors. i'll be honest i have never gotten auto star to work properly, mainly cos i used batterys (cold = low voltage) i was a hell of a lot younger, and had a father who was very impaintent and wouldnt help me even though he was a electrictionĭitch the batteries and get a 7ah power tank. swap controller (dont know any one with one) swap batterys (batterys were fresh out of a box of 10)Īny ideas how i can get it to work or what i should do instead. I turned it on, it did somthing funky, did a 360 and an error message came on the controller. i know iv said how rubbish these scopes are but mainly its the build quailty of the mountĪ long while ago to my knowlage it was working, i put some fresh batterys into it (never got around to getting cable for powertank) but i put durecell pro cells As you know i have a little etx 70AT was having a play with it last night and today and i forgot how sharp the views actually were.
