    I have installed a new camera setup, Aluma8300+FW8, SC-2, AO8. Other sporadic issues with getting the cameras started, my biggest challenge is to get the AO calibrated. I got a good calibration on the MaxIm DL Pro guide tab, but when I try it on the AO Locate tab I get a report that calibration failed, Invalid +X image.

    Does anyone know what the Invalid +X image condition arises from? Is there a checklist to follow to get this calibration?

    What version of MaxIm DL are you running?

    I'll ask @Brian Brown to comment also, as he has been working on improving the AO performance.
