Re: 6120 Amp Glow
Kevin,
I am not seeing the edge glow that I normally see in a dark. (I use a QSI 583 and 683) and this makes me suspicious that it has been altered.
Also, the temperature of the CCD is recorded as

Re: 6120 Amp Glow
If your ambient temp is 30c, that means you would only be able to get to a set point of -10c reliably, just something to note.
Again, your FITS header is reporting that the CCD temp is +13.5. That is

Re: 6120 Amp Glow
It was 26¡ãC outside and over 30¡ãC in the dome, so cooling was working. Why isn't it dark?
Thanks.

In the future, you just need to adjust sharing settings so that "anyone with link" can download/edit your file on google drive.
Google drive will also send out emails that you approve request to allow

I tried to find a site, Will, but had no luck at the time.

Re: 6120 Amp Glow
Hi Kevin.
You need to post a link to your dark frame that is publicly shareable.
The link you provided is a private link that requires the user to log-in to an existing GoogleDrive account, or

OK, took two darks tonight, both at -40¡ãC below ambient, which was about -18¡ãC.? Here is one of

Re: Vertical band on image
Hi Nicola.
The bright bands on either side of the frame are normal for a KAF 8300 sensor in the QSI683, with the brightest band always on the left side, but they will calibrate out perfectly when you

Thank you for your consideration Vince. I will share with you that there has been a lot of ¡°noise¡± on this issue in the many forums I participate in. The ASCOM driver has limitations, such as the

Re: New QSI driver- released 8/5/24
Hello Nicola,
I am sorry to say we haven't been able to support the 500 series camera for several years now, but they are such a well made camera that they go on for years!? Sadly they don't share

Re: New QSI driver- released 8/5/24
Hi Vince,
this message is a bit provocative. On the face of it, it looks as though you only support Windows now, while my old 500-series camera worked perfectly well under macOS running TheSkyX.

Re: Vertical band on image
Paul,
I do have the dark frame with the same band, taken at the same temp and
same binning. But still, it doesn't get rid of that and I don't understand

Re: New QSI driver- released 8/5/24
Hi Vince,
does it mean that if the camera will eventually fail I can simply throw it
in the trash bin with no chance of repair?

Re: New QSI driver- released 8/5/24
Hello Barry,
We (QSI/Atik) had to change to supporting just the ASCOM driver to make support more manageable as there were so many different astro programs out there. I can certainly talk with our

Hello Nicola,
The 600 series firmware files are not usable with the 500 series cameras. Sadly a lot of the 500 series information was lost when the original QSI was put up for sale along with some of

Re: Vertical band on image
Nicola,
It looks like you have an issue with your master dark frame.
The master dark should be produced from individual darks at the same temperature and exposure time as well as gain, binning etc,

Hi Paul,
unfortunately calibrating the frame does not help, the band is still there.

Re: Vertical band on image
Nicola,
Take darks and this will be removed.
Due to other limitations of 2x2, I think you would be better off binning 1x1.
