Filter Wheel in Capture Plan

[dts350z]

Am I correct in that BYEOS (currently) cannot change filters as part of a capture plan?

 

e.g. each "group" using a different filter?

Correct <_>

Well, there's always something to look forward to in BYE v3.2...!!...

In the mean time, the ASCOM Filter Wheel Tool does allow for manual changes...

Trying to decide on manual filter wheel, vs. no wheel, vs. ASCOM wheel.

 

It would help to know when/if filter control in the capture plan is planned to be BYEOS.

Oh, I got bigger plan for the "Capture Plan" in future release, including filter change... but it will not be for 3.2.  Auto-focus is way at the top of the list for 3.2.

Unless you are only ever going to use One-Filter-Per-Imaging-Session, you will want a Filter Wheel.  

If possible, go for a Motorized ASCOM-supported Wheel.  You can always use the ASCOM Filter Wheel Control App or the similar component in BYE - until Guylain has an opportunity to better integrate that component into the Capture Plan.
