By default, the scheduler is designed to run on multiple nights. Therefore, when started, it tries to continue from where it was left on. If all the sequence images are already captured and stored on disk, then it will declare that all jobs are complete. If you would like to start anew, there are a couple of options:

1. Move, rename, or delete the captured images folder.
2. Edit the sequence file and change the storage location to a different location.
3. Disable Remember Job Progress setting in Scheduler Advanced settings.

If you signed up with Google/Apple social login, the system generates a random password in the site. For website login this is sufficient. However, StellarMate App requires username and password login since it can operate in totally offline mode. Therefore, after signing in to stellarmate.com, go to your Profile and set your own password. Use this password for logging in StellarMate App.

Every time you connect to StellarMate, it sends a token that the App uses to login to the device. Sometimes, the App uses an old token whereas a new one was generated by the system. The solution is simple, just tap stellarmate again to force a re-login.

It's not wrong. INDI uses a different convention to represent longitude. Longitude is 0 to +360 increasing eastwards. For example, if you longitude is 80 West, then in INDI it is represented as (360-80) = +280

Usually this message is displayed when there is a communication or login error between your phone/tablet and StellarMate. A popup notification would show the exact error. Try to check the following steps:

I. Login Issues

1. If the reported error is about authentication:
   1. Go to Settings tab --> Reset App.
   2. Restart App
   3. Sign in
   4. RESCAN for StellarMate
   5. Connect Again
2. If #1 does not solve the authentication issue then login to StellarMate Via VNC and launch StellarMate Tools app on the desktop then click Reset EkosLive. Reboot stellarmate.

II. Communication Issues

1. If you have Mobile Data enabled on your phone, then disable it as this might interfer with your connection to StellarMate Hotspot.
2. Double check you are fully connected to the hotspot, sometimes Android/iOS do not fully connect, check network settings for any warnings. If possible, click Keep This Connection.
3. Check if you can reach StellarMate WiFi using your tablet browser. Open the browser and then go to http://10.250.25.1 You should see StellarMate Dashboard if all connection is OK.
4. If no response at all after reboot (i.e. not hotspot created), try to connect HDMI cable to the mini-HDMI port closest to the USB-C power port and connect it to an external monitor. Do you see any messages? Please send a screenshot to support.
5. If all above fails, you can try re-flashing StellarMate OS image unto the SD card (or a new SD card).

If the StellarMate App seems to be stuck on the authentication step, sometimes simply tapping stellarmate again should resolve the issue.

Live Stacking image can be saved to the Tablet/Phone storage or photo gallery by clicking on the save button in the LiveStacking options as illustrated below:

Please note that the Live Stacking images are already saved to StellarMate internal storage and can be accessed via the View tab or via browsing SM shared network drive. All Livestacked images are automatically tagged with #livestacking tag so you can easily search for via the tag.

Please check the following suggestions:

1. Ensure that you can see stellarmate HotSpot network name in the list of networks detected by your tablet. If the stellarmate network is not listed, then check StellarMate power. If power is OK (steady Red Led with occasional Green flashes) then check and make sure the SD card at the bottom of the unit is plugged in securely. If SD card OK, use the HDMI cable to connect the unit to a nearby monitor/TV and check for any error messages. Take a photo of the error and open a support ticket in order for our technical support to help you further.
2. Ensure Tablet must be connected to the HotSpot (default password is stellar@mate)
3. Ensure that StellarMate power is sourced from a 5v @ 3A steady power source. Anything less than 3A would make it unstable.
4. If you have equipment connected to the USB3 ports of StellarMate, try to unplug them and restart StellarMate as USB3 might sometimes causes interferance with 2.4Ghz wireless networks

While a view to the celestial pole is desirable, it's not strictly necessary. The App would work almost anywhere in the sky, prefereably closer to the meridian.
