Hi Fil, For your table, can you specify what settings you used (USB traffic, binning, field size, 8 or 16bit) and which OS? This particular camera has not yet been connected to any GPS antenna Does this mean you test without GPS signal? If so, I think you should work with GPS (there are cheap antenn...

Working means in this sense (I think you should also work with GPS ...

Hi, Robin, Glad to see you again Jean-Francois. Because of limited time, in the moment I could make only a few tests regarding Robin's initial post. So far I didn't involve your posts, Jean-Francois. W7-64 i7 16GB, SC 3.2.6441 pro, USB2 Port, FW upgraded cam: Mono 8; 1920x1200; USB trfc 0; bin 1x1; ...

Hi Robin, This would be strange. Actually I didn't reproduce your tests, but from my expierience there is no hint on this - the "auto-calibration" works very well. I work with a firmware upgraded QHY under USB3 on W7 and also W10 / latest SC and also latest SC 3.3. And I did not hear anyth...

Hello Jean-Francois, Due to limited time I was only able to do a few spot checks: It works in principle. because the Start/End value from SharpCap are sometimes far away from the correct values Are you sure here? With the "autocalibration" I fulfill normally the criteria I wrote somewhere ...

Hello Jean-Francois, That's all very amazing ! I've tested under W7-64 with the latest SC 3.2 and 3.3 (both 32 bit) - both scripts work very well. Example script 2 with usual times for occultation work (a CSV output might be good ?). Time_List = [5,10,20,30,40,50,60,70,80,90,100,150,200,250,300,350,...

Hi Robin,

Maybe the best option is a button that opens the folder containing the profiles?

yes, this is a good idea.

Hi,

Just tested various settings (SC 3.2.6433.0 32bit, W7-64):
