Update on the 2.0.0 release & the full manual
We are getting close to the 2.0.0 stable release and the full manual. The manual will soon become available on the website and also in PDF format. Both versions will be identical and once released, will start to follow the APP release cycle and thus will stay up-to-date to the latest APP version.
Once 2.0.0 is released, the price for APP will increase. Owner's license holders will not need to pay an upgrade fee to use 2.0.0, neither do Renter's license holders.
Hi. have been using APP for a long time and never had any trouble until today. Loaded 54 FITS of M64 and used the normal settings I've used all along. Master calibrations files all assign themselves etc but when it come to integration there is suddenly nothing. So have tried a trial with other data files I have that have worked before - nothing. APP reports Integration 1 has ISO/gain of 0.000 and the screen is just black.
Any ideas will be greatly appreciated as this has me totally baffled. Thanks.
I would try to integrate without calibration files to see if there's an issue in the calibration data. Also start with resetting your settings (via the cfg menu) just to be sure it's a stock configuration.
Hi Charles @charles-thody,
Like @supernov indicates, this sounds like a data calibration problem so first try to integrate the lights without any calibration frames. If that works okay, then you need to investigate the calibration frames/masters, look for difference in sensor offset between the calibration frames and the lights for instance.
Please let me know if this solves it or not 😉
