The Clouds and Target section of SessionCraft monitors for various events (triggers) and executes target re-centering. The target re-centering on PointCraft and GoTo++ so make sure that you have configured them correctly in order to be able to solve images.
The Clouds and Target section defines the events (triggers) on which to make target re-centering, but also provide valuable information as information about the locked position and the last target re-centering.
There are different types of triggers that can be configured in any combination:
1. Re-center after every X images
2. Re-center after every X minutes
3. Re-center after X "lost star" reports in row from PHD2
4. Re-center after cloud coverage has lowered under defined limit
Note:All automatic re-centering triggers require the option Lock Target to be enabled. It enables a smart logic to track what you are imaging without need to do any specific actions. It just knows where the scope is pointed and is able to get back to this position via GoTo++.
In the Clouds and Target it is all about same action - re-centering so when we have configured multiple triggers there is no matter which trigger exactly will start the process, the other triggers will be also restarted. For example re-centering by clouds coverage will reset the image counter and time counter and guiding counter.
Lock Target
When enabled SessionCraft will monitor all mount movements via GoTo++, GoTo or slew detection (except guiding and dithering) and remember the exact position. Having this position is possible to define target re-centering on various events. The current target lock cloud be found in the Log section.
Enables target re-centering on every X images. In the brackets is shown how many images are taken since the last re-centering. Every mount move, resets the trigger.
Enables target re-centering on every X minutes. In the brackets is shown how many minutes has passed are taken since the last re-centering. Every mount move, resets the trigger.
Enables target re-centering after X "lost star" reports from PHD2 in row. If PHD2 manage to restore the guiding, the counter is reset. In the brackets is shown how many "lost star" reports in row are detected so far. If PHD2 manage to restore the guiding, this counter is reset.
This feature can be combined with Pause after stop When is it defined, SessionCraft will wait the time and will try to recenter, try to start guiding and resume the imaging.
Enables could coverage tracking via Observing Condition device which can measure the cloud coverage. It is possible to define a clouds coverage percent that pause the imaging and clouds coverage percent that allow target re-centering and resuming of the imaging.
When enabled will wait X before re-centering triggered by lost star or cloud coverage. If the GoTo++ fail, SessionCraft will make the pause again and will make another to re-center the object. Any other Session Craft trigger will stop this loop. During the pause no re-focusing will be made.
