Hi Ernie

There should be a guide log PHD2_GuideLog_2022-01-13_095528.txt to go with the debug log. It isn't in the zip file - just an empty one from today

Thanks for your patience. This should be it.

Hi ernie,

I can see in your Debug log that you had been guiding. e.g You did your PHD2 darks around 10am, then around 1500-1600 you did more darks. At 1900 you did some guiding and I can see some camera errors in there. Around 6am you had another session where you did a calibration.

Those session where guiding occurred should be in a log but it looks like it has been deleted or otherwise lost.

So you need to wait till next time so you can send both the Debug and Guide logs. Its theoretically possible to use just the Debug log but its huge and diffcult to work with. Its main use is for diagnosing technical issues.
