Vixen SkySensor 2000 PC | SkyFi + SkySafari 6 Pro = Connection Success

I just wanted to post this to verify that I am able to get this combo connected and working. I built my own cable using the schematics in the back of the SS2000 book. I am connecting with an iPad.

 

I do have one minor issue that I haven't worked too hard to figure out yet. Once the connection is made the screen starts to flicker. It appears that it is flickering between 2 different views. For example I have the compass activated and the iPad is facing south. The South view is showing but also another direction is flickering on top of this view. It is too fast to see exactly what is trying to be displayed. May sense? Any suggestions?

    You should never have the compass activated while connected to a scope.  Probably what is happening is the app is dithering between showing where the compass says you are pointed and where the telescope says you are pointing.

    Aha. Makes sense. I will give that a try this evening. Thanks for the quick response
