Hi, I know that if you are imaging using the HSP read mode, that your darks need to be in HSP as well (and time and temperature matched). What if...
Could well be. At Doug’s suggestion at AIC I’m starting to dither a significant amount so my frame may have shifted that direction more than I...
I've certainly seen out of field stars run a line similar to that over an image. However, this has appeared on two different targets and the stars...
Here is a 90sec Bin1 Dark high read-out and 90sec Bin1 Light frame high read-out. I did these in the observatory, which has some light intrusion...
Hi Colin, I’ll try that and report. Thanks.
Hi, I have been using my AC4040 regularly now, and the last two nights an artifact has appeared in all light frame images that wasn't there...
Thanks Greg. I've been using -5C, but maybe I'll try 0C too.
Greg, I'm not clear on your data acquisition description. Does your reference to '60 Second frames stacked on Camera' followed by the 180s LRGB...
Greg, that is a nice image, congratulations. By the way, I've been configuring ACP to work with my observatory to present its simple web interface...
Yikes!! I like the swappable plug, in particular now that they are accessible externally.
I agree!!
Hi Bob, the reference in the ACP help files is under "Calibrating the Guider" where it talks about determining the guide sensor angle manually....
I will answer this, I think correctly. When going through ACP setup tonight, I tried initially the 90 degree offset, given my observation of the...
Hi, I have an AC4040 and Starchaser guider. I'm setting up ACP, and one of the questions asked is whether the internal guide chip is 'aligned'...
Hi Eric, I'm about to start to use the AC4040 with my photometric work (time series photometry for exoplanet follow-up for TESS). In the past the...
Ok, my idiotic mistake was not trying to update drivers via the 'Universal Serial Bus' as opposed to USB Serial Port under 'ports'. Of course...
Here is screenshot of device manager and programs.
Hi, I'm probably doing something really idiotic, but for some reason I can't get my AC4040 to be recognized on a new observatory PC I've just...
Hi, the crescent moon helped me find the right side, and then some trial and error with the moon and then stars resulted in a successful FOV...
Ha! that would apply to any number of furry and non-furry creatures.
