Re: Pause PHD2 when FF AF?
Hi Rudi, just a suggestion. I really like the idea of the sequencer. A few times I requested new features to Fabio and he implemented some of them. Since the sequencer will create a script that will do the same thing I have found it much easier to embellish the script whenever I feel the need for a ...

Re: Cannot connect to ZWO Camera
Just a suggestion check that all three are installed.

Re: Cannot connect to ZWO Camera

Re: settings QHY268c in Astroart
When you start your camera (I assume it's an ASCOM driver) you should see the ASCOM camera chooser. The Properties button should open a window with camera controls.

Re: Setteling time when using Center
Hi Rudi, the center script has been working well for me so far. Here is the script I used for years to center. You can adjust the pause to meet your needs. raOri = Telescope.RA deOri = Telescope.DEC Camera.Binning(3) Camera.Start(5) Camera.Wait ra,de = Image.EstimateRADEC ok = Image.FindCoordinates(...

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...
