Yes, it had to happen
Following my recent post about the error message 'something terrible has happened', there were several very useful posts and I have been able to study, understand and implement them. First clear evening for days so I had the SGP sequences set up in advance. After focusing and 'centre here' (which didn't seem to work well for me) I went ahead and ran a sequence of four targets. Perfection. Each target centred to within 100 pixels (my test settting) and watched; usually two attempts were all that was needed to place the target within ~10 pixels, so all the images were excellent - except for me having to pause during a cloud break, and the pause worked 100% as well. I can therefore reduce the 100 pixels.
The next challenge will be to incorporate dither especially when using large number of images.
One or two minor puzzles arose; during centring the slews appeared to be too fast. I shall try to find a slower setting - but it did all work.
More success like this please

PS any chance of peaking at the SGP 3 manual without commitment?
