What advantage, if any, does PHD have over Envisage? Thank's, Hulett ... Be a better Globetrotter. Get better travel answers from someone who knows. Yahoo!...
Hulett, As for how well one guides over the other is probably subjective, but the biggest difference is in the implementation. Envisage is designed to guide...
Jacques, I'll give you the long answer here and some software as well you might look at. For remote operation of a scope and camera I essentially divide it up...
Hi all, I have a DSI-Pro (original) and Meade filter set. I'm just getting into color after a couple of years of mainly B&W and have run into a problem with...
hi all, i have been trying to find if there is any solution to using full envisage features on other mounts. I really like envisage, and would be peachy if i...

hi Mike, I don't use color filters so take the following with a grain of salt, ok? I don't think the remedy for lower signal in a particular color is to stack...
Mike Keep all your colors exposure times the same. The blue will require the most exposures to smooth out the signal to noise ratio. The red you can sometimes...
Bob, Firstly, thanks for the reply. Your suggestion is the assumption I've been working under. However, using that procedure resulted in virtually no red at...
Hi all, I think I know the answer to this but here goes anyway. Situation: - Assume I have 40 images from one night and 40 from another. - For some reason,...
I had the same problem on my DSI 2 Pro - in this case vague blackish spots, easy to see when using a barlow, but they could be avoided by moving the scope ...
It's me again with another question for you all. The following image has those pesky brush marks that I've heard can come from improper dark frames or dark...
Hello Durcoiii To add a little bit to what Tom said, there is an article in the files area by the afore mentioned Bill Kiecher about Alt-Az photography. It is...
I'm interested in using this device for CCD work with the DSI 2 Pro RGB and a LX200R to increase image scale on planets and for examination of star pairs and ...
Mike, The red channel should be the most pronounced, the blue the faintest and the green slightly better than the blue. The red should come out almost as well...
Hi Dave, Assuming that you are able to combine the two nights' results (in ASIP or Photoshop), yes, you will gain signal over noise. In Photoshop, placing one...
I have the StarMate LX200 emulator and it works well also. If you still want to use only Envisage, then this is a good solution for you as it takes the move...
Hi Dave, The steady temp may boil down the problem a bit. If the dark master isn't mismatched in temperature (best possible fit for the temperature), then we...
... still want to use only Envisage, then this is a good solution for you as it takes the move commands from Envisage (Envisage thinks it is talking to an...
Two other points that could be related. I discovered that the tabs at the top will let you click, hold and drag them to another position but below the...
Hi Bob and Sander, The DSI II Cross.pdf document that accompanies the download describes how to get the desired camera to the DSI II Cross window: If you use...
Hi Dave, two reasons for the brush marks: - darks don't match your lights (different temperature, different exposure, too much time between darks and lights...
Hi Tom, thanks for all these details. I knew there was a dsi2cross utility but since I only own model 1's I didn't pay attention to it. Once I get dsicross to...
hi Bob, I'm sitting here with my two DSIs connected and Envisage running. The cross is on the Pro, no matter where it appears in Envisage. I can move the DSI-C...
Hello all: I'm having trouble getting my DSI Pro II to work on my new observatory computer (HP desktop, running XP Pro). When I plug in the DSI to the USB port...
Ron, could you please provide a link to the picture in question? I'm trying to get a handle on histograms myself so I'm interested in this subject. Thanks, ...
Thanks Ron, I had not seen any replys. I have a Baader IR filter (I didn't mention the name before, sorry) and was wondering if it could/should be used with...
Hi Kel, Here's <http://autostarsuite.net/photos/dsnay/images/13990/original.aspx> the dark frame for the night in question. It looks remarkably like others in...
