red dwalf Posted June 4, 2014 Share Posted June 4, 2014 not 100% certain what the graph should look like as long as it hasn`t got big peaks and troughs, looks fair to me and i don`t seem to be having any big issues with round imaging stars, what do other people think of it and any help in getting it better maybe. seems to be much the same when doing 10 minute subs which is the longest i`ve taken so far. i have proper polar alignment of course to start with.

+Graham Posted June 4, 2014 Share Posted June 4, 2014 Hi Rob. I noticed from your guide star post you are using Eqmod. Take a look at this link. http://eq-mod.sourceforge.net/docs/eqmod_vs-pec.pdf If you follow the auto bit in the pdf it should pretty much flatten that graph out for you.

red dwalf Posted June 4, 2014 Author Share Posted June 4, 2014 thanks Graham, looks an interesting read, which part of the file should i be looking at ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
+Graham Posted June 4, 2014 Share Posted June 4, 2014 Rob theres a paragraph in there about setting up and using the auto PEC mode. Apparently it will do it all for you and run it every time you use the rig. Going to test it out on mine if I ever get a chance with this weather.
