Drat. Here's another try at the file link: https://1drv.ms/v/c/fad37fcb1da1ebec/ERZRLoTbigVLuvC9oDRyfaQBWnzvtt4z9Rge8Uygt078VA?e=r0yaHl
Doug, It is not my intention to hijack this post, but the AOX twitch phenomena has been reported in several posts over the past few months. My...
Awesome. What threw me was that with the equivalent GUI vs scripted comparison for the Locate function, the GUI Binning field does update to the...
Evidence? Hah! You want evidence??? My word is no good??? Well, OK. Try this experiment (can be done with or without actual stars to look at,...
Additional observation: When scripting a guider locate or calibration, a master dark frame does not appear to be generated and applied despite...
Will do.
Colin, thanks for looking into this. No, I'm trying to change the binning, then calibrate: The steps (in pseudo-code) are: 1....
I rarely if ever sample lower than 0.5 secs as I'm pretty sure I'd just be chasing seeing and increasing aliasing. Although I don't use PHD2 now,...
(MDL 7.14) In an SC4/AOX hardware configuration, when scripting a guider calibration (CCDCamera.GuiderCalibration()), a guider binning change...
I have seen the calibration behavior you describe, but I haven't been able to force it consistently yet (there are times that I can calibrate in...
Fair enough. Must be a tough problem -- not easily replicated in vitro. I just figure the more we can help narrow it down, the better. Awaiting...
Experiments last night didn't reveal anything startling. Turning on or off autodark reduction did not have any obvious effect. 3x3 and 4x4...
Yes, my bad, it is an SC-4 and on a scope with a 2563mm focal length. In the video, binning is 2 (there are AOX calibration difficulties with...
AOX guiding in MDL 7.1.4 (Aluma 4040/AFW10/SG4) via a Paramount MX+ shows the guide star jumping infrequently, but randomly (see attached). The...
Yeah, does certainly sound like you have a very different issue, especially if it blows up in just a few frames. I'll keep an eye open for you on...
Joe, I’ve been studying your CCDAP log, etc. Nearly as I can tell, all your software and drivers are up to date, irrespective of the odd version...
As Colin notes, TSX is returning the CFITSIO error to CCDAP, but mostly likely passing it through from a hardware driver given the 33133 error...
Joe, Could you post your CCDAP log for the session in which you got this last error? - Rick
Marcus, Doug, Thank you very much for your comments. Marcus's experience sounds like a very plausible explanation for mine. I had noticed that...
