Hi,
Does anyone have any ideas about what sort of information I could gleam from the .csv guide-log file saved using the KStars internal guider?
I can see the DEC and RA rms in the KStars guide-log in real time, but what else can i extract from the saved .csv file.
Using PhD2, there is a PHD2 log file viewer that allow you to see calibration data (stuff about orthogonality), and possible polar alignment error. I am trying to optimise my system to push towards 10minute subs.
My current setup is a follows using the Internal guider default settings and 2s exposures:
Mount:Celestron CGE
Primary Scope:ED120-ds-pro
Primary Camera: 450d
Guide Scope:WO 50mm/200mm Guidescope
Guide Camera:QHY5-L-ii-c.
5 minute subs are doddle but my 10 minute subs start to show drift.
Many thanks in advance,
Will.
