Re: Pause PHD2 when FF AF?
Center script command, also from help file. Telescope.AutoCenter(exposure, binning, [ra,dec]) Starts the automatic centering with plate solving, using the new Centering Window of Astroart 8 SP1. The script will be paused until the procedure is complete, then use the function: Telescope.AutoCenterOK(...

Re: Pause PHD2 when FF AF?
Hi Rudi, here are the parameters for PHD script functions in AA help file. Start guiding. It's possible to specify the three parameters for settling (pixels, time, timeout) as described in the PHD EventMonitoring interface: https://github.com/OpenPHDGuiding/phd2/wiki/EventMonitoring , for example: P...

Re: Pause PHD2 when FF AF?
I agree with what Duncan said. I used PHD for quite a few years, since the multi star guider was released I have been using it. The calibration also works much better then the previous versions.

Re: Pause PHD2 when FF AF?
Sounds like you get out about as often as I do! . I'm going to start building an observatory soon, hopefully I'll get more imaging done! BTW prior to AA8 I suggested to Fabio that it would be great if a script could be executed from the sequencer, that would solve your problem.

Re: Pause PHD2 when FF AF?
Hi Rudi, you can convert your sequence to a script. Sequencer menu - create similar script and then add PHD.Pause PHD.Resume into the script.

Re: Subframe From selection choice
Hi, maybe I don't understand what you are asking? Here is how I select a subframe. Take a full frame exposure. Drag a box on the image I want as a subframe and then select "From selection".

Re: Plate Solving - No Luck
AA needs a hint at where the scope is pointing. Click on the small icon next to the search region window to load the Ra and Dec from the image. As I mentioned in your original post plate solve data is separate from the Sky Atlas data. For more info read this thread. https://www.astroart-forum.net/fo...

Re: Plate solving - confused about catalogs
Hi Jack, AA plate solve data is included with ver. 8
It does not need to be downloaded separately. In the Instrumentation section there is a plate solving with AA8 thread that my be helpful.

Re: Binning CMOS ASI2900MC
John if you want to select software binning use the camera control panel and click on the wrench icon. You can select software binning from the image tab.

Re: Live Stacking ?
Hi John, this is a script from the demo scripts section of AA help.
Imaging and stacking in realtime
expo = 3.0
for i = 1 to 10
if i = 1 then
Camera.Start(expo)
else
Camera.StartAndStack(expo)
end if
Camera.Wait
next i
