From there the light frame calibration depends on what you load. If you load a master bias but no master dark it will subtract the master bias from the light frames, if you load both a master bias and a master dark, it subtracts the master dark, but not the master bias as the master dark contains the bias information as well..

Thanks again for the info and heads up
I’ve posted in the Deep Sky Stacker Groups for some relevant information regarding Calibration and my specific situation
It’s quite an extensive topic this calibration, I had no idea of the complexities with different cameras and imaging systems. It’s definitely “NOT” one shoe fits
all.
Cheers
