Maybe I miss understood the message. I set the ADU for the flats to 10,000 and the Dawn/morning flats failed. The order was L/R/G/B/Ha/O2/S3. I've...
So I've got the images downloaded and saved but as soon as I open one in TSX to try to plate solve it immediately plate solves by itself before i...
Interestingly enough with both guider and main image chip populated using NGC869 I can't get the guider image to plate solve regardless of method....
The process I use for creating a new FOVi is using The Sky X to go through a 5-6 step process to create extremely accurate results. You take the...
[ATTACH] Thanks Doug. Something like the double cluster, NGC869, would be great but it transits at 08:26 am...but always above horizon. Well at...
Thanks Doug. Not having installed the equipment I'm a bit clueless as to orientation but was under the impression that the SC could only be in one...
From what I see in the manual the Star Chaser is installed in one position only so the only way I can see the calculation of the guide chip being...
What I miss most about the older cameras is we use to have FOVi for those cameras already configured. All we had to do is take an image that had...
Thanks Doug, I will give this a try.
Maybe I'm not reading the manual correctly but if this takes multiple frames and then combines them how can you be sure you don't have a bad frame...
Is there any reference for suggested exposures with the CMSO line of cameras. I've used CCD for many years and the CMOS cameras seem to be a...
Colin I had hoped to do some further testing last night but had very sporadic connection to the system. Seems the solar events are having an...
Anyone you know of using the AC4040 or I guess any SBIG CMOS cameras assuming they all have the same gain configurations in MaxIm? Any idea how to...
So I was able to take sky flats the other evening and again, even with the camera connected and set at High Gain, when the flats started via ACP...
I had issues remoting into the system this morning at SRO and really need to get the new NUC out there very soon. On that note, how can I reliably...
Thanks Coin. I'll give this a go tonight I hope.
Rereading my post I realize I was a bit inaccurate. I stated the star to be round and that's untrue. They are an exaggerated tear drop shape. On...
I tried to calibrate the Star Chaser, AO not in play, and found the stars are round but the exposure would indicate the centroid of the star....
I've posted in ACP forum but was wondering because every time I open and connect in MaxIm it seems to default to HDR mode instead of last used...
OK, flats appear to be underway but how do you set gain via the flat plan? This is using ACO Scheduler to do Dusk/Dawn flats. It started as...
