Hi,
I am running PHD2 and it guides perfectly for hours on with sub arc sec RMS values.
But my main scope has an image shift of 1-2 arc sec per minute and I am trying to find out, where that shift comes from.
My mail telescope is a 10" f/5 newtonian, focuser pointing "inward" towards the EQ6 mount, a small 50mm F180mm guidescope is placed on a vixen doveail on the tube rings oposite the losmandy on the mount.
I suspect, that the imsge shift i due to flex in the system, but I would really like to verify if the PHD FOV is fixed or if it shifts.
Can I deduct this from the log files? I can't find any information for this.
For example, it would be nice to have the centroid x/y for the guide star(s) in the logfile for the whole guide session. I tried to save imaged (advanced settings), but it only allowed me to save 100 images. To analyse 4-5 hours og 2 sec images, I will need to save thousands of images.
Any sugestions?
