Re: Can I Sync On A Star And Update the Gemini-2 Plate Model?


 

Jim i'm a little confused by your question, what are you trying to do?

If you are plate solving you do not need to build a model. When you plate solve, that that performs a sync

Remember there are two models, east and west. Syncing or model building on one side doesn't impact the model on the other side.?

If you plate solve on each side of the meridian, that should be enough for plate solve to nail your goto within 50 pix or so in under 5 refinements.

If you are trying to get more accurate gotos out of the gate, better polar alignment will help
