Re: Automating run including meridian flip
Hi Mike, Sorry for the delayed response. I've not updated this script further, as I've moved to NINA for long photometry runs. The move to NINA was prompted by its ability to support remote observatory (I built an observatory in the Spring) control rather than the meridian flip challenge, but NINA d...

Re: SharpCap 4.1 not starting correctly
Hi Robin,
Thanks for the help. Selecting Move did not work, but selecting Maximize did! And, the license key is still there so all back to normal until I screw something up again .
Best regards,
Gary

SharpCap 4.1 not starting correctly
All of a sudden SharpCap stopped launching correctly. The SharpCap icon appears on the taskbar but no window opens. I tried deleting and reinstalling the software but had the same problem. I saw much earlier posts reporting similar problems associated with .NET. Can you point me in the right directi...

Re: Troubleshooting USB Issues
Hi Robin and Dave,
I have disabled selective suspend to see if this makes any difference. If this does not solve the problem, I'll provide the diagnostic information requested.
Thanks,
Gary

Re: Troubleshooting USB Issues
Hi Robin & Dave, These are some great additional points to check. My current laptop does not have the USB ports to support connecting the cameras directly back, although, in my current situation, the 533MC is directly connected to the laptop and acts as a hub to aggregate data coming from anothe...

ZWO 533 Issues
Hi Kaymann, Were you able to determine the current firmware version for the 533MC-P? I'm currently experiencing a USB connection issue and wonder if a firmware upgrade might help to solve this. I download the ZWO firmware update tool, but it did not come with the firmware and I currently cannot loca...

Re: "An error has occurred while writing RAW frames"
I may be experiencing a similar problem. I was attempting to use SharCap to image a bright photometry target. 5sec subs gain = 50. To remove atmospheric scintillation, I was then stacking a minute's worth of subs and trying to say the 16-bit stacked image (16-bit selected under Save button) with the...

Re: Plate solving with error greater than 15 degrees
Hi Robin, Yes, it was a large error for sure. My remote mount kinda forgot where it was, and being remote, and with no way to do a local realignment, the restriction on a 15-degree search was not allowing me to gain control of the pointing. In the end, I had a friend drive over to the mount and do a...

Plate solving with error greater than 15 degrees
I ran into a problem with plate-solving last night. If the target was greater than 15 degrees in error, the ASTAP plate solver called from SharpCap did not seem to switch to searching the whole sky after initially trying within 15 degrees. Instead, once the search reached 15 degrees it stopped and r...
