Re: ASI178 -Lunt Images w SC bu not ASIair pro
Thanks Robin I did investigate more . Strangely , the ASIAIR displayed image improved (somewhat) when I changed to video mode , then back to preview mode. But I never did store any images to see what is really happening. I will work this issue later , I think, rather than risk issues during eclipse....

Run 2 instances of SC sequence for eclipse capture?
Hi Crazy idea??? I am planning on imagining the Eclipse with 2 different camera/scopes on the same mount. I would like to run 2 SC Eclipse sequences(one for each rig) on the same PC. Only 1 SC instance would be connected to mount. I would set the capture timing for Pre-Post eclipse to be offset from...

Sharpsolve data for Polar alignment?
Hi Robin
I was curious if your Polar Alignment feature can/will use the Sharpsolve database to allow for a wider "solve" area around the Pole.
My FOV is blocked , such that I can't see within 83N of the pole.
Take care.

Re: Eclipse Sequence Generator
HI LK
Maybe a silly question.
If I am out somewhere with no internet connection , can I setup and run this program?
How?
Thanks again for your work on this.
