Hi
I have many problem to establish communication between my sky BT and sky safari (installed on a xiaomi mi 9). My mount is an AP900GTO mount
sometime it works good but i have often this message "SkySafari can make connection but the scope is not responding".
What must i do, i try to close bluetooth, battery are ok, it is very frustrating...
Regards
My recommendation is, if you fail at first, try again.
Seriously. I use SkySafari-6 Pro with a SkyBt with all my mounts -- including my AP Mach1 GTO. And sometimes I fail to get a connection the first, or even second time I try. But I almost always get a connection by the third try. And once connected, I don't think it ever disconnects on its own -- unless the batteries in the SkyBT run down.
But all that said, I seem to have better luck connecting the first time when I use my phone (an older Samsung Galaxy S8), than when I use my Samsung tablet. I think my phone connects faster and almost always on the first try. I don't know why. But even when my tablet fails at first, it eventually connects.
I don't think the "problem" is with your mount or your SkyBT. I suspect it's your tablet. But since you say it sometimes connects, my guess is that if you immediately try again (and even a third or fourth time), it will eventually connect.
