Hello all,

I have been new to SGP and have been playing around with its cool tools.

I have been struggling with the “center on” tool after a meridian flip. Before the flip it takes the image, does the flip, then attempts to move back to the original location.

I have it set for within 50 pixels which it usually accomplishes within 2 recenters. However, after the meridian flip it gets “caught” in a location and will continually plate solve, note that it is off, not move, then take a picture, plate solve, not its not in the right place, etc. Until it eventually fails without moving once (I have it set to 6 recenters before failing).

At that point, I hit “center on again” it does another slew and then works perfectly and is usually within 10 pixels.

The rub is that it makes automation a lot harder since I would have to be at the mount for the meridian flip recenter.

Thanks for any help you can provide.
