Autoguiding : features request

dan_paris

Hi,

I really like the ASIAIR so for but have trouble getting good autoguiding results with my ASIAIR, more specificially in DEC, because my mount has some backlash.

There are two options of PHD2 that really helps for that, and it would be tremendously helpful if we could activate them with the AISAIR application:

- guiding in RA only

- DEC guiding in one direction (useful once you have figured the drift direction)

Btw is the "resist switch" algorithm used by default for DEC guiding ?

Another great option of PHD2 is "Fast re-center after calibration or dither", having that option with the ASIAIR would save a lot of time in my imaging sessions.

thanks !

Hey Dan, the RA only was added in v1.4.4 which will be released recently.

The other options we need to discuss.
