Re: Plate solving parameters in Telescope control Centering
Dunnmunro,
Thanks for replying.
As I said I use the GAIA Catalogue.
I am not into guessing.

Patrick.

Re: Plate solving parameters in Telescope control Centering
Fabio, Thank you for your rapid and fulsome response - very clear now. If one does a GOTO using Jnow coordinates it makes sense to me to plate solve to Jnow coordinates during the Centre process. In fact after a GOTO using Jnow coordinates, if Jnow is not selected at the Centre page a warning is giv...

Re: Guiding - Hot pixels option
Hello,
Did this option make it into SP2 and if so how is it selected?
Regards,
Patrick.

Plate solving parameters in Telescope control Centering
Hello, If I am correct, when saving Plate solve parameters the Region size(RA and DEC) values and the Reference stars value are not saved. So, having plate solved and saved the parameters, I later do a Telescope control GOTO. I insert J2000 RA and DEC values, tick the Jnow box and press Goto. I then...

Re: AA8 and UCAC4 cat installation?
Hello,
With my AA8 Upgrade I downloaded the optional GAIA catalogue but do not have a UCACx (or any other) catalogue.
Should a UCAC have been included (I may have deleted it !!) or has it been replaced by the GAIA?
Am I able to obtain the UCACx catalogue?

Patrick.

Subframe focus - Bahtinov and spectral line methods
Hello,
1) I am familiar with the Bahtinov technique but am looking for descriptions of how to integrate this into Astroart processing?
2)Also looking for descriptions of how to integrate focusing on a spectral line into Astroart processing - especially finding the width of a line?
Regards,
Patrick.

Re: AA8 SPk Telescope Control - Centering
Fabio,
I acted on the (mistaken) expectation that the settings made would have remained for the duration of the session.
The need to use the Save Parameters function clear.s this up.
Thanks,

AA8 SPk Telescope Control - Centering
Hello, I am using AA8 SP2k LAA (testing) with both Camera and Telescope Simulators. I select the Telescope Control Centre Tab The Plate Solve Reference Stars and Search Zone values that appear were not those that exist in the Plate Solve window at the time and are obviously independent from them? I ...
