Great news Jared. I really do appreciate you implementing this. Chris

I think it was a bug in a Windows Insider build. It no longer happens.

Just another thought Jared could another way to achieve this be to let theexposure continue to completion before interrupting the sequence?Perhaps there could be an option in control panel to allow...

I just bought 16200 and 7 positions filter wheel . if it not work as you said so I have to change to MaximDL?I heard that it is not show % cooling also . but i'm not sure that Moravian fixed it or not.

yes, this is exactly the case. in the popup RA and DEC = 0 (it's also visible in the log) for .net details : On my windows 10 where it does not work , I have .Net 4.0 (or 4.1, I don't remember) to 4.6...
View ArticleSave new sequence - but nothing has changed
OK. That was easy to do but it made no difference. I start SGP, let the windows open, then close the program. It asks whether I want to save the new sequence. I will live with this one for the moment....
View ArticleSGP incorrectly ending sequence because 'Unsafe' when it is actually 'Safe'
Hello again, Unfortunately it happened again last night... SGP shutdown everything due to an Unsafe event. I have changed the USB to Serial cable to an FTDI based one for the CloudWatcher. I have put...
View ArticleFile naming and Flats strategy - how do you do yours?
I just wondered how people approach naming flats within SGP? Do you have them as events in the target, or do you create a 2nd target for them, or even a separate sequence? I have recently switched to...
View ArticleAutofocus in a near star field
The thing is due to the small field, there are limited number of stars, so the PN has great impact. I don't see an easy way to adapt the autofocus algorithm in this particular case.
View ArticleImmediate failure, sequence aborted. Manual restart fails on autoguider
Two weeks ago SGP worked fine, now it just fails to start, when I run sequence it jumps almost immediately to abort sequence right after its done slewing and i get recovery window, I try it again and...
View ArticleTo have the ability to go to predefined position other than park
Hi, I would like to request a feature that allows you to move the scope/mount to a predefined position other than Park. I have an LED panel for taking flats which requires the scope to be in a certain...

+1 for this feature. Would love to be able to create all m yobjects as predefined sequences and then just select which ones load on a particular night.
View ArticleFile naming and Flats strategy - how do you do yours?
Since I have my equipment permanently set up in an observatory I never takeflats as part of a light sequence. As long as I don't change the cameraorientation or equipment I can use the same flats for...
View ArticleMoravian 16200 CCD can use with SGP?
The Moravian 16200 and Moravian filter wheel work just fine with SGP DURING A RUNNING SEQUENCE. The one strange thing about the Moravian ASCOM driver is that the filter wheel will not change positions...
View ArticleTo have the ability to go to predefined position other than park
This is not available from within SGP, and it is probably not somethingthat SGP will implement because SGP relies on the mount driver for thingslike this. What mount are you using? Most mount ASCOM...
View ArticleWhen guiding interrupts
Paul, Guiding won't currently interrupt the sequence unless you're using the frame restart option. It sounds like you are and probably want to turn that off. Also keep on mind that in most cases that...

I forgot to mention that I have a flat panel mounted on my observatory wall, and I have defined a custom park position so that at the end of any sequence the scope is parked pointed straight at my...

thanks Jared, I'll find that and turn it off. Brilliant, thanks,Paul
View ArticleFile naming and Flats strategy - how do you do yours?
Thanks Joel - yes, I have a permanent set up too, and hadn't actually considered the no-flats option! But the more I think about it, the more I think a separate sequence will be the way to go!

This is probably one of those "optimization" things. Rather than have the filter wheel spinning around uselessly in between frames, just remember the last filter position selected and implement it as...
