Triffid Nugget Help

Posted By Edward Davies

Hi all,

I have recently purchased a Yankee Robotics Triffid Nugget auto guider. I have been having big problems using the camera. All exposures (even as short as 0.1s) blow out (the histogram is all the way over to the right in maxim). The only stars I have been able to pick up are the likes of vega and deneb (with very very short exposures). I have found out that the min / max ADC settings need to be correct but have not had much luck with them.

Has anybody had any experience with this camera? Any help that can be offered would be greatly appreciated.

Many thanks in advance.
Eddie
