Tracking and Guiding Settings Telescope slew to an altitude below 5 will be prevented. WARNING: Undithered guided operation being used. AGSR enabled for 30 cycles to get within 0.2 pixels. Focus Settings FocusMax is using the RoboFocusServer.Focuser focuser driver SkyStar being used for focusing. Focus star maximum brightness is Mag. 4 Focus stars will be selected to have an altitude higher than 60 degrees. Focuser temperature compensation is not enabled. A post-focus offset of 0 counts will be applied. Focusing will be performed every 100 minutes. Filter Parameters Filter Offset Focus Exposure clear 0 3.0 red 0 3.0 green 0 3.0 blue 0 3.0 o3 0 6.0 s2 0 6.0 Halpha 0 6.0 Meridian Flip Settings Automatic meridian crossing enabled. The mount will not be resynchronized after the meridian crossing. The guide star will be automatically selected after meridian crossing. A focus run will not occur after the meridian crossing. The mount will track for 1 minutes past the meridian before flipping. The rotator will not rotate upon meridian crossing. Session and Options 1. Startup Tasks Sky Flat settings with tracking on and a dither of 5 arc-min. Null point automatically set. Dusk starting sun altitude is 0.5 deg. Dawn starting sun alittude is -8 deg. Flat exposure range is from 0.5 to 30 sec. Bias is determined automatically. Light frames for the specified target(s) will be obtained. Precision slew to target will be used. Telescope will be parked while waiting for target start time. 2. After Light Frames Telescope will be parked after light frames are completed. Telescope tracking will be turned off after light frames are completed. Any light frames or dark/bias frame exposures will be aborted at dawn approaches. Dawn flats will be acquired 3. Shutdown tasks Telescope will be re-parked after dawn flats are completed. Tracking will be turned off after dawn flats are completed. Cooler will be turned off. 01:39:37 01:39:37 Run starting... 01:39:37 Log saved to: C:\Documents and Settings\outters\Mes documents\Mes images\FLI principal\ic434ced83\CCDAutoPilot_Logs\ccdap20090220_013934.log 01:39:37 *** Review setup before starting session *** 01:39:37 01:39:37 Root save path: C:\Documents and Settings\outters\Mes documents\Mes images\FLI principal\ic434ced83\ 01:39:37 System profile: C:\Documents and Settings\outters\Mes documents\CCDWare\CCDAutoPilot3\System Profiles\tec140-FLI6303e guidage FS60-ST7xme.app 01:39:37 Target List: C:\Documents and Settings\outters\Mes documents\Mes images\FLI principal\ic434ced83\ic434-ced83.xml 01:39:37 Start sequence number: 146 01:39:37 01:39:37 01:39:38 Light Frames 01:39:38 Telescope connected (0) 01:39:40 P:TO2, : Accès refusé.
