Shoot an exposure, perhaps 1 second using the "Focus" tab. On this tab you will find "Inspect". Take a look at the readings, and also the star image on the screen. You will find it better to draw a smaller box around the star as this will help the download speed significantly. Focus FINELY in and out watching the image, and the readings. Try the help file for the meanings of these readings, but you want as high a pixel reading as possible. Of course seeing will make this fluctuate, but try it and come back to us.
