SharpCap Forums

All packed away now with a week of cloud and rain to come then we'll be away a few days but if we ever get a clear night before the summer recess I'll set up and do the screenshot and get back here. Thanks Robin.

Hi, there are plenty of videos showing how to work this made by SharpCap end-users - have a look and see which ones have a presentation style that you like https://www.youtube.com/results?search_query=sharpcap+focus+assist We don't have official tutorial videos for SharpCap though. cheers, Robin I'...

Tried again tonight but I can't see how you force focus scanning.

It is connected and I have been manually focussing by typing in a 5 figure number for the focus position but finally found it quicker to go out and put the Bahtinov mask on. I am sure I have tried the positive/negative buttons but will have another go tonight.

How do you 'tell it to scan' ? Still can't get it working.

I have done everything but tick the box so hopefully next time I'm up and running that will get it going.

many thanks Robin.

How do you get SCD to plot a graph as opposed to what I am currently doing and mving focus in and out manually to seek the lowest score.

I am using a Celestron Focuser and operating it in Focus Assistant in SC.

When you say scan is there a way to force this scan.

Thanks

Hi Robin

Thanks for the reply.

I have a Celestron Focuser and I am currently manually moving the focus in and out in Focus Assistant to get the lowest score.

How do I get SC to plot the graph?
