I can't/won't speculate on how this happened but the filter wheel configuration was set to an older camera/filter wheel. After looking at the...
Well I gave the system the night off and checking today proved not so good. Took the filter wheel/camera loose and saw no movement yet MaxIm...
Thanks William, Your post is quite helpful. I shutdown the system for the night and will have a physical look tomorrow. My plan was to have my...
Seems that although my imaging system indicates filter changes being done while imaging it doesn't seem to be so. After calibrating and trying to...
Thanks Colin, that makes the ability far better as I've had it set to 1 second. Ten times faster means more sky flats.
On the same topic, what is the fastest shutter speed I can use for sky flats?
Thanks guys. I think we're in the process of taking out the AO and installing a rotator so I'll probably wait till then. Just was surprised to the...
Not sure how they got there as I have no recollection of setting them. If I uncheck the Horizontal flip will it have any guiding affect or is...
I have been experiencing failures for the processed images to plate solve without it needing to "mirror" the image if that makes any sense. Long...
The manual says to use the fastest exposure for flats. Initially I used 0.01s because that was the fastest I believe but the banding issue was...
Back to the Flats, 0.01s or 0.3s, or does it matter as long as the ADU is correct (1500)?
Thanks guys. This is a whole new process for me after 25+ years with SBIG CCD cameras. So at what point should Band Reduction be used? Is it used...
So I am using High Gain StackPro and should leave the settings in the Read out Mode file in ACP to all High Gain StackPro. I can and have had...
Thanks Doug. I think I now see and understand that the data from this camera should only be processed via MaxIm? In the mean time is there and...
A simple Ha image of the Ring with 30 3 minute frames taken with a 24" f/7 RC at SRO. While not extremely deep, not sure how this compares to xx...
My primary use of MaxIm over the years has been to operate the camera for imaging. The past has included a vast array of SBIG cameras and using...
The attached image is the result of 15 240 second exposures. Thin on data per my usual hours of data for each color but what I have from last...
I set a plan to image NGC7635 and from the acquired images I get the feeling that subs of 240 minutes is too long based on the washed out area of...
While doing some more testing on the 24" with the AC4040BSI I thought I'd check the FW version but am unclear where this would be found. I opened...
Seems I'm in the ballpark now, thanks Colin.
