I have been using the sequencer quite a bit and have expanded it's use to include starting guiding and have been having a problem getting guiding started. It seems that PHD2 loses a lock and my guiding dies every time but I am able to guide prior to these attempts. Does anyone have a particular scheme to retry PHD2 in the sequencer when first attempt fails?
Thanks for your help

Re: Sequencer and guiding
Hi,
in theory you should just be able to use the 'start guiding if necessary' block inside a retry block. 'Start Guiding if necessary' should walk through the steps needed to get PHD guiding, whether it's starting from connecting hardware and calibrating or if it just needs a star selecting and then guiding being activated.
cheers,
Robin
