Native vs Ascom drivers in SGP

radarboy

I am thinking of switching from the ASCOM drivers in SGP for my 1600-pro to the native drivers. I assume this may have faster performance on downloads. The native driver is asking for offset and gain values.

Can you please let me know the following:

1) Offset used on Ascom driver for HDR, Unity, LRN settings?

2) If there would be any problems using my existing darks library taken via ascom drivers against lights used from the native driver.

Thanks!

I updated to the latest ascom driver that has the advanced setting and now I see that its set at 50.

Yes, offset need to adjust according to dark frame, the data on left histogram must be complete, if data was cut, turn up the offset.

Yes. Any difference in data between ASCOMM and the native driver? Would calibration files be the same so long as the offset and gain match?

No difference between ASCOM and native. calibration files must be the same offset and gain with light frames.
