Robin, thank you! I just took a bunch of Darks using the NON-EXIST read mode. If I go out and image in 11M mode, will the lights work with the darks? I'm sorry for all the questions and really do appreciate your help.

Thank you!

Hi Robin,

My mistake on the spelling. The only two options in the Read Mode tab are 11M MODE and NON-EXIST. My camera is a QHY294C Pro. Can you tell me which one I should use?

Hello, I just recently updated to the latest version and there is something in the camera settings I don't remember seeing before.

Thank you Robin. I appreciate your generous time and advice.

Thank you Robin! I'm still a bit confused. If I don't ask SharpCap to save the dither frames, how does dithering remove walking noise and such? In other words, what should my settings be if for example I'm taking two minute subs? Do I save the dithered frames or no? Also, my camera is a QHY294C Pro ...

Hello! I'm sure this has been exhaustively covered, but I cannot find the exact information I'm looking for. I use CPWI as my main connection software. I am running SharpCap and PHD2 for my imaging and guiding. My question is regarding dithering. My imaging camera is a QHY294C Pro and my guide camer...

Hi Robin, I believe I found the problem. I hooked my camera, with cooler running to SharpCap earlier today. The cooler kept cutting in and out and the camera also cut in and out. A few weeks ago, I bought a USB 3.0 extension cable for my camera. So, I've been running the camera cable to the extensio...
