Hi everyone, I am a new user of kstars/ekos using Ubuntu OS (installed on a windows virtual machine), my setup is EQ6 controlled by Eqmod, autofocus with MyFocuser2, Sbig ST8 ccd with double sensor (acquisition + guide). Everything was recognized without problems, the plate solving is fast and precise, but I ran into a couple of problems that I am going to list:
- autoguide calibration: I have to deepen the various settings, at the beginning I could not calibrate, there is a need to deepen... but the problem is that when I go to do the acquisition for calibration, it would be recommended to subtract the dark, but from the Dark Library tab it is not possible to select the guide sensor; I then acquired a dark manually and put it in the Library folder, but it is not recognized, maybe it must have a specific name, I don't know...
- here the oddity, if in the Acquisition Tab I create a sequence to acquire 4 shots, these (so it seems to me) are taken in pairs, and for each pair they have the same name, so the second shot overwrites the first! in short, I find less than expected...
I also wonder if there is a detailed guide.
Thanks to those who can help me.
