[SynScan WiFi Beta Testing] 6.7.0 Update Has Removed The SynScanLink ScopeType Option (Answer: New Beta Is Available, SynScan_Link is Back!)

The new update seems to have removed the Synscan-link connection, the normal synscan option does not work.

    Terry/Luis hi

    I did exactly the same.

    My IPad also had notice of an update, so I assumed that was a Standard one.

    So currently my:

    IPhone is Sky Safari 6 plus ver 6.6.5.2

    IPad is Sky Safari plus ver 6.7.0.1(not included in this beta testing process)

    Also see the other Post(20:55):

    SkySafari 6 Plus 6.6.5 (6.6.5.2) is ready to test on iOS and watchOS.

    6.6.5 (6.6.5.2) on TestFlight is the beta with the ScopeType SynScanLink option.  You may have to uninstall 6.7.0 to be able to reinstall the beta via TestFlight.  

    If you are using LiveSky all your data will be backed up and re-synced when you log back into LiveSky.

    Keiron good evening

    I just uninstalled and then reinstalled from Testflight.

    My makes the noises/sound effects like it has connected to the AZ-GTI, but I cannot move it.

    My only seems to connect using the Demo interface, no physical movement, only app functionality.

    I will await some other feed back.

    Hi:

    You are choosing ScopeType: SynScanLink?

    And just to be crystal clear, I assume in theory these are the settings we should be using (but demo mode only connects for me with no movement)?

    SynScanLink doesn't  appear on the menu Only SkyWatcher SynScan

    The nearest I have to match that s the SkyWatcher SynScan(does not work).

    As stated initially by Terry, this update removed that new option of Synscan-link!

    Not sure, if the  Demo Interface has always been there(that at least connects).

    Correct, the SynScanLink option is not available in 6.7.0  

    However, if you reinstall the previous 6.6.5 (6.6.5.2) version via TestFlight it will be available again.

    I said this previously.

    Thanks!

    Aiiii, sorry, looks like an oversight on our part, somehow 6.6.5.2 was built without the SynScanLink option.  So, we will have to make a new build.  I'll will ping you here when the new build is up and ready.

    Apologies, thanks for your patience, and reporting!

    Morning Keiron

    No problem, all part of the testing.

    Out of interest, is that something we can expect later in the day or later in the week.

    Cheers

    Sorry, I can't give you an ETA on the next build at this time.  But, as we are waiting for the SkyWatcher mount to arrive, probably, when then mount arrives the build will definitely come available.
