Download Time

I own two Atik 383L cameras.  One OSC the other a mono.  I recently purchased a Finger Lake PDF focuser and have been using the auto-focus routine in Sequence Generator Pro with great success.  Unfortunately, the slow download time really makes auto-focus a time consuming activity.  I find that to download an image takes about 30 seconds.  I am using the ASCOM driver.  Has anyone found a way of speeding up the download times from the 383L cameras.

Hi,  You really need to be using sub framing to get the time down.  I know Focus Max allows this,  but I have not tried sequence generator.

Thanks, Steve.  I'll see what I can do.
