Using ASTAP in SC

#1

Post by smithn00 »

I use ASTAP standalone on my laptop. I want to use it in SC. Do I need to make any changes to file names and/or lacations to make this work?

Hi,

as long as Astap is installed in the default location then it should be as easy as going to the SharpCap plate solving settings and choosing to use Astap as the plate solving engine. There's a test button in the settings that sends a known image to the plate solver to check communication between SharpCap and the plate solver is working OK.

cheers,

Robin
