Hi,
I am trying to sort out PHD2 guiding for the first time and am wondering if anyone has any ideas on how to resolve the error message, 'Even using the maximum number of moves PHD2 can't properly correct for the large guide star movements in RA.' I did increase the max RA duration to the maximum but still kept getting this error message with the Skywatcher Star Adventurer. I read it is usually a cable snag or similar cause but am wondering if anyone has any ideas to help me resolve this? I had PHD2 set to 1 second to 5 second exposures with 3000ms calibration steps, RA aggressiveness of 90 (I tried this up to the maximum) and minimum move in pixels was 0.15. Any help trying to resolve this is much appreciated.
