My lights and darks are both 120 seconds. There's 2 issues going on here.
If I put a 120 second dark in the script, along with a flat generated in the flat wizard in Nina, Pixinsight complains about the issue I posted in the first post. That's problem one.
If I do as Fred suggested and use a Dark/Flat in place of a Dark, I get the warning in the Control panel. That's a different issue.
That's why I posted the list above, I'll post it again.
Lights are 120 seconds.
Darks are 120 seconds.
Flats are 0.60 seconds
Dark Flats are 0.60 seconds
Bias are listed as 0.00 seconds.
What combination from this list, of my current lights, and calibration frames from my library, will work in the script?
Yes I can post screenshots, but I've posted the errors it gives under the 2 different circumstances.
If I use in the script:
120 second lights
120 second darks
.060 second flats
0.00 second bias
I get this error in the diagnostic tab. There is no error in the Control Panel.
"==== PRE-PROCESS CONFIGURATION
==== Flat frames (filter = NoFilter, binning = 1, exposure = 0.60s, keywords = [], mode = pre-processing, frames = 50 (50 active))
Warning: No Master Dark will be used to calibrate the frames, the Master Bias will be used instead..
==== POST-PROCESS CONFIGURATION"
If I use in the script:
120 second lights
.060 dark flats
.060 flats
0.00 bias
I don't get a warning in the diagnostic tab, but I do get this warning in the control panel.
"WARNINGS
Light frame's exposure differs from the Master Dark's exposure.
You can add a compatible Master Bias and optimize the Master Dark in order to achieve a better dark current estimation."
Here's the Control Panel screenshot. Again, this is with Dark/Flats, so of course the exposure does not match the lights. I now see the box for Calibration settings, it was mentioned earlier, and I couldn't find it.
All I need to know is what combination of these calibration frames will work, with my current set of lights at 120 seconds? All I want to do is fill those tabs at the bottom of the script.
Darks 120 seconds.
Flats 0.60 seconds
Dark Flats 0.60 seconds
Bias 0.00 seconds.
