Hi Nathan
I use Maxim with my QHY9.
Answers as follows:
1) In the camera control box (Autosave), you can select what type of image you are taking (ie light, dark flat or bias). If you select dark or bias, it will keep the shutter on the QHY9 closed.
2) In Autosave you can select it to "Group by Slot". This means if you are setup to do 10 x R, 10 x G, 10 x B it will take 10 shots using the R filter, then 10 in G and 10 in Blue. The default setting cycles through them (1 R then 1 G then 1 B) until it has done 10 in each.
I leave it at the default setting. It gives you more to work with in terms of data if your imaging is interrupted for some reason.
3) I don't think there is a limit. There is rarely enough imaging time in 1 night to get anywhere a limit in any case.
4) No experience with maxpoint.
Hope this helps.
Al
