Re: Feature Tracking Tool

@Robin - Tracking is, generally Solar, but it's easy to forget to double check.... Best thing for me is probably to strip back both mounts and start a-fresh (whilst cloud's the theme for the next few days) That's both mounts and 4 scopes stripped back to the tripods, and returned, balanced and 'pol...

Re: Manual Focus - mororised focuser attached

Cheers Robin.

Just a wonder, though, if it might interfere with some of the programming behind the backlash settings? I, currently, use overstep.

Re: Manual Focus - mororised focuser attached

Thanks Robin - how about using a pair of the existing buttons, difference between mouse click and mouse hold (for at least a second). And/or option switch in settings.

Re: Feature Tracking Tool

Thanks Robin, Frustrating this morning - both mounts 'polar aligned' on the Sun. But need a big nudge on GOTO (CdC) to hit target. Both refractors with wedge : Display as GONG images - horizontal flip on cams. Mount One at 0730 very slow drift to left, then from about 0900 a slow drift to the top le...

Manual Focus - mororised focuser attached

Would it be possible to have a simple two button setup (In/Out) that moves the focuser when pressed, stops when released?

Re: Feature Tracking Tool

May I drop in with a question - would it be possible to implement a user chosen target - for instance a sunspot? I was having a great deal of difficulty this morning trying to get the tracking feature to guide - no matter what I did drift was still the same.

Re: Upgrade behaviour and Solar Mosaic.

Cheers Robin.

4.1.11804 - that was the one that downloaded at the start of my morning session.

As said I used default as this was the first time of using this new version of the mosaic, so learning curves.

Thanks

Re: Upgrade behaviour and Solar Mosaic.

Hi Robin, The upgrade was between two versions of 4.1 - the very latest and one probably younger than 3 weeks old - but I didn't check. Regarding the Mosaics. The first one I used was at f11, created 4 quarters, but didn't leave enough overlap into the dark so that I've a very small bit of the disc ...

Upgrade behaviour and Solar Mosaic.

I upgraded to the very latest version this morning, on two pcs. On both upgrades, my second profile was removed. No major problem, just a little annoying. I also sent an error report when running Solar Mosaic on my f33 setup. I asked it to automatically find the disc which it appeared to do, but the...
