Hello Kim,

I greatly appreciate your further investigation. It really confirms that something is happening that ougtht not to be happening.

I'm not able to tell from the guiding logs where the high or low points are (at least not the log generated by TSX. The CCDSoft log is easier to figure out) but the raw data certainly shows the phase difference between the two curves (which I have posted below).

I'm thinking about an experiment where I have the TCS window open and watch the index number. When it gets to the very end of the cycle I would start guiding, and then stop guiding on a specific number. An examination of the guiding log would show if the same numbers were being logged as those shown in the TCS. I'm pretty sure they would be.

That leads to the question of whether the numbers seen in the TCS really corespond to the worm position? Could a long cable run lead to some sort of latency where the worm is actually more advanced than what is logged?

Charles, I am ready to try Pempro and I'm glad to hear of your positive experience. Would you share what your uncorrected/corrected numbers are? Unfortunately my trial version has expired. I never got to test it months ago due to a camera incompatibility. It would be an expensive experiment particularly as I've had good luck with T-Point and most likely wouldn't use the alignment method either. Still, if it works I could move on from this endless frustration.

Thanks,
peter
