WCS software help.

[libraryman]

Hi All, i've been trying to align my mount with WCS and a spc 900 webcam, i have'nt found it easy to press and need a little help understanding where i'm struggling.

The instructions seem sensible enough but on the dec axis adjustment for e.g , it asks to do the correction 10 times or six times or indeed 3 times on susequent runs.

how does this work without presing stop and restart???

Any guidance would be appreiciated.

What specifically is the trouble you're having? WCS can be quite confusing!

Hi Tony your right confusing to say the least, however, after i posted, i went back out and realised Doh, that the # off occations is just an indicator of how far your out, my specific problem is the dec axis, after the run i get two sets of dual green lines, one set of red lines and a green arc effectivly intersecting all three.

Ialso get a couple of circles both red and green, if your familiar with WCS then you might have seen these.

i also would like to know what value or use the calibrate tool is?

I think i'm sorted, i've found a help guide on the webb.

I've added a link in case some one else has initial set up issues.

Excellent . I initially had a few issues with WCS as well but the author does have a forum on his website.
