Hello All
I am wondering if is there a method how to collimate a SCT Telescope with SharCap 4.1.
I read in the User Manual documentation that the circle reticule rings can also be used to assist with collimation. It sounds interesting.
I would really appreciate any reference.
Thank you all
Clear Skies for all

Re: SCT Collimation Aid
Hi,
good time to ask... There is nothing officially aimed at SCT collimation, but I'm told that the 'Planetary Live Stacking' tool can be set up in a way that helps spot the diffraction pattern and assist collimation.
See this thread on CloudyNights - https://www.cloudynights.com/topic/9119 ... ry13281003
cheers,
Robin
