ACP Plannner And Starry Night

Have download ACP Planner 4.2.6 and already had SN 6.4.3.

My problem is there seems to be no funcional link between ACP Planner & S.N.. i.e no ref to selecting for ACP and I cannot find any plugin.

Have read Daniel Johnson's thread and Mark Kuehner's. But they do not solve my problem.

I have difficulty in following the above threads because e.g.

I do not see any "Sky Data\View" options in S.N .

In my S.N. I have: File Edit View Options Label LiveSky Favourites Window Help

In Options there are Presets but no ref to ACP.

In Help there is "About Plug-ins" but this lists only 2 Ascom and a Maxim Dl plug-in.

If you send me a "plugin" it would help me a lot if you could give me "child instructions" on loading in S.N.

Also, will this Plug-in do both the change in display referred to in "Getting Started with S.N" as well as enabling planner to work with S.N.

Sorry above is a bit wordy!

Hi John,

There is a thread started by Daniel Johnson asking questions about getting SNP talking to ACP. I think the info you seek is in that thread. See: http://forums.dc3.com/showthread.php?t=5229

I have loaded the file enclosed with Bob Denny's reply to Daniel and it appears in SN Options. I believe it also changes the appearance of SN. But I stilll cannot get any link to Planner.

I believe the clock in SN is set so the target is in the future .

Reply to Mark Kuehner reveals a plugin is also require. Loaded this andadingtargetsis now OK. Thisquery can be closed

Thanks, John.

I had this same problem with the Starry night.
I was able to fix it with this thread and the thread from Mark.
I just wanted to make sure the plan file I downloaded to Sky Data\Plugins is the correct one for Planner 4.2
The thread I downladed it from was planner 4.1 and a earlier version of Starry Night.

Thanks
Mike

Yes, the Starry Night plugin hasn't changed in years.

This thread seems to have gotten broken as I can not go to the referred thread Mark started as the link just loops back. Seems I installed SN Pro after ACP Planner was installed and a "repair" doesn't seem to change the status in SN Pro. This is a Windows 7 64 bit system.
