You do not want the cooler running at 100% because it cannot regulate without headroom. The sensor temperature will start to vary, causing...
Very cool! Amazing in fact, considering how little exposure time you have.
I can't find your name in the user database. Please post the first 5 digits of your serial number.
Here's what I got from processing your images in MaxIm DL. You can see that there is some faint nebulosity in the background. Blinking the...
The flat folder is full of .xisf files; I think that is some kind of proprietary Pixinsight format? I need FITS.
To draw any conclusions I'd really need a full set of images, plus calibration frames, in one of the filter bands.
Prototype is on my desk undergoing testing. Getting close.
When using high speed USB devices such as CCD and CMOS imaging cameras over long cables, you need to have optimum USB signal integrity. This...
I've been saying this for years, ever since I started working with USB 2.0: Do NOT use the front USB ports on a PC for anything other than...
We use an outside supplier for CNC machining. We've weighed the pros and cons of bringing it in house. On the one hand it would be a bit less...
We're not equipped to do one-offs like that... it would be stupid expensive, e.g. a couple of thousand dollars. On our end all that really...
It likely has to do with bias stability. That is a problem for many CMOS cameras even today. You will often see bias level shifts from image to...
I was travelling when you posted the question, so I missed it. I would have hoped maybe a customer might have provided an opinion. My advice...
Just be sure to follow the shipping instructions. Tip: Express shipping is actually cheaper. If you send it ground there will be additional...
I always find it hard to interpret anything processed by PixInsight, because it changes the dynamic range from 0-65535 to 0-1, and I don't know...
FYI the cooler will automatically switch off if the input voltage drops too low, to prevent damage to the camera (excessive input current). Many...
Should not be possible to brick it unless you attempted to upload an invalid firmware file. I'll as @Adam to have a look.
If you power-cycle the camera, it should revert to an old firmware release. Then you can try again.
You need to use your own details. Make sure you are entering the camera serial number accurately. Please send me your serial number so I can...
It will require diagnosis, not just swapping boards. You can email @Bill at bill at sbig dot com. He may also respond to this thread.
