So I did the procedure originally outlined with assigning camera 1, and camera 2. I also found the file offered above and deleted it. So as of...
Yes it is plugged in. When camera unplugged/off, checked plug it was snugly attached. AC4040 firmware 13 Driver 2.40 Version is 6.28, will...
Aluma AC4040 and FW7 filter wheel, SC1300 guider. The DL config sees the components. Going into Maxim 6.28, trying to connect to camera it gives...
There are two different DL config programs or whatever it is. I had to use the one accessed through Maxim, so it did finally work. I have been...
So I tried updating the firmware. Open DL config...downloaded the latest Aluma firmware version (26). I go to choose file...I go to the...
Hello Colin. So I set the exposures like 15s, as above. This will set this for High Gain Stack Pro, if it is selected as the readout mode,...
A question about high gain stackpro...how do you use it? What I mean is, is it like a CCD camera, shoot X minutes, or is there some special...
Yes, thanks. As I mentioned like starting over. Did review the materials, this camera is nothing like the STL6303E. A few more questions:...
Finally have the new observatory up and running sort of in New Mexico. Got the 4040 camera a bit ago, never got it quite up and running. Am now...
So I have finally got the observatory more or less complete in very rural New Mexico. Have the 4040 up and running finally. Win 7 system, Maxim...

It is a big file...and I 1/2 sized it but here. As I mentioned, none of the gain settings have been modified (purposely) on my part, have not...
Attached is a five minute unguided image of M81 through the CDK17/Aluma AC4040. I had it set to simple auto dark, camera cooled to -20 and used...
Doug, any idea when the driver might be available? As on another thread, have had issues with the guiding, as you are aware. Have done...
Thank you Collin, among other things will move the sensor a bit and see how that goes.
OK, so when I shoot an image through the main camera, I see the dark outline of the mirror on the lower part of the image, maybe 10% to 15% into...
Yes, I would beta test it. One variable. My wife and I close on a house in rural New Mexico March 25. Oddly enough, will be setting up a larger...
Yes I do quite understand that there numerous variables. I have dialed back aggressiveness, increased the minimum move, increased the delay after...
This is a problem I think. I suspect that given the resolution, even binned 2x2 (about .65"/pixel), it is going to be virtually impossible to get...
