Dear Patrick Just to draw your interest to an access violation I caused by performing Image Inspection close to the end of an exposure, while running the image inspection the program called routine As

Sometimes it happens that you may observe a fast moving target (NEO, comet at low distance). Fast in this sense means a large proper motion on the sky, considerably larger than guiding correction (e.g

With PHD2 I have an option in Autoguidage to restart shooting because bad guidance. This option does not exist with the internal guide:

Hi, The new version 0.9.82 of CCDciel is released. Download from https://sourceforge.net/projects/ccdciel/files/ccdciel_0.9.82/ or update with apt-get. IMPORTANT: A new internal guider calibration is

(Sorry, I should have reported this earlier because the problem exists for as long as the internal guider has been implemented ...) As soon as I activate on Auto-guiding tab Software: "Internal" I do

Hello, I have two small problems with CCDciel: In a sequence, I put light and flat shots. The sequence starts, guidance with PHD2 starts. The shots in light are done. Then, the telescope and the shelt

Dear Patrick, First of all, Thank You Very Much for your great work and effort. I have follow, or at least that is what I think, the instructions to create bias, darks and flats masters but this file

I am in the process of commissioning a recently acquired AP Mach1GTO/CP3 mount system. I'm using the AP ASCOM driver via Alpaca and that is how I have CCDciel connecting to the mount. What I am seeing

Hello everyone I continue my tests in spectroscopy with motorized UVEX4. With the sequencer and using python scripts I start with a target acquisition sequence (Bet Aur) img: 10x 20s exposure. Then a

Hello This is that old subject, but for me, prior to the latest release, I have had no problems with MF. Now if flipping at North or South I get the pier side message and it waits 300 seconds. Last ni

Hello Patrick At this time of year, and as always clouds interfere with my sequence. Guiding is paused and sometimes exposure is restarted in accordance with preferences. Rarely a target is skipped (a

Hi, What best practice methods can be used that might be incorporated into CCDciel sequence runs, that could be used with CCDciel internal guider in an interactive way, both not only to optimise guidi

Hello, I'm looking to use Indi switches. I was planning to use it to drive the 12V power supply for my camera and my telescope. I tested with rpi-gpio and astroberry-relays. Indi connection works. On

hello. I would like to be able to memorize one or more positions Azimuths altitudes. This allows me to position the mount by pointing at a distant terrestrial object and thus be able to synchronize be
