problem with atik414 ex!!!
« on: July 22, 2019, 12:08:46 pm »
Hello everybody , i,m new here and i have aquestion.
i used the atik 414ex for 2 years now and encountering the following problem.
I use the sequence generator pro program. If I start focusing automatically, my screen will show a lot of stars and the contours of the nebula. however, the stars have a small dot in the middle. (so not well focussed I think). When I make a recording of 5 min ha I get an almost black screen with a few stars.

If I subsequently take a picture of 5-10 seconds in frame and focus, it remains the same. a black screen with a few stars. Personally, I think it can have something to do with an ice layer or so on the sensor. but have the ccd a few days in the house and that must be thawed. However, this is not the case. Is this more known to members? if so what can be done about it. Greetings Ronn
