Hi I am trying to produce a BPM which I have done many times before using a different ccd. I am now using a asi183mc and have tried to calibrate the darks and flats using RGGB, Adaptive Airy Disc and force Bayer CFA. I have also tried it without these checked. Every time I get the same error message. I have rebooted the Pc win 10, ver 1809 64 bit os. I have also taken new flats and tried again several more times
I tried with just flats and darks to make a bpm and then lights flats darks bias and the error message comes as it tried to produce the bmp.
I have unticked bmp and it actually produced a MD, MF,and MB.
Any help would be appreciated.
Kind Regards Jenny King
So if i understand this right ? all you want is to create the Masters right ?
MF, MD, MB, BPM.
Why are you using Master Bias on a ASi-183MC IMX sony Bsi chip?
Mitch
Because I tried using a dark flat and it seemed that the calibration files were not applied. Plus I don't actually know much about the chips. Any advice for this chip would be appreciated. My other astro cameras are ccd mono but I thought I would give this MC a go as weather often restricts time of imaging in my location.

Hi Jenny, its the same chip as my Altair Astro 183IMX Color.
So that should not be a concern, something else is going on here.
create 32 bit masters is unchecked..
Are you in the UK or USA?
i teach Pixinsight , and SGP , APT to students all over the world via Anydesk.exe.
been using APP bout a year now ,,, no longer use PI for calibration only processing.
i could have a quick look , if your not sensitive to logons onto your PC.

I have just added a coma corrector to my 200p so I am going to start again with lights darks flats and flatdarks and see what happens. I am in the UK. I don't use pixinsight. I have used sgp since it was free! And have successfully used APP for quite sometime but with a qsi690 mono and an Atik314l mono. Usually with a TS 71 imaging star. The amp glow on this ASI 183mc is something else and I bought it to go on the 200p for galaxy season which from where my obs is, is now. I will see how I get on with some new data.
Thanks for the offer and I might take you up on it once I get some data and clear skies.
Hi Jenny,
I don't think that it is something that you are or are not doing, I am getting similar Java errors myself, see: https://www.astropixelprocessor.com/community/main-forum/yet-more-issues-that-i-have-no-idea-how-to-fix/#post-5968
There are many more reports of similar issues throughout the forum too.

Yes , just like th AA183MC the right hand side Electroluminescent starburst can be cleaned up in APP and a good set of darks (30-50)
the amp glow is actually on top and bottom and is very low.
