Lodestar MaximDL Guiding and Dithering

After a fruitless first attempt at getting a Lodestar camera to work with MaximDL I decided to read all the manuals and google it all.

My free trial period ran out so I had to pay for MaximDL as I have no real choice as it supports FLI gear.

Tonight between clouds as usual got it all working. MaximDL sees the Lodestar and what is even better guides the PMX mount very nicely. The calibration was too easy as it was a bit like PHD.

I did a few test images and the dithering works really well.

I will not bother showing any images as the thin cloud nearly stopped even this simple test.

Another small step for a delusional old fella.
