You now need to set up the camera control defaults (shown above), as follows:
Start SXV-Hmf by clicking on the icon and select the ‘File’ menu. Now select ‘Set

appear. Suggested starting defaults are as follows:

1)

Red (or as preferred)

2)

FITS Unsigned Integer format

Off

3)

Star mask size (area used for photometry and guiding)

8 pixels

4)

Telescope guiding output to ‘autoguider socket’


The other default settings are not important for current purposes and may be left as
the software start-up values for now.
