File Settings
Settings for specifying where captured images are saved to, and how to generate unique
file names.
·
Prefix : Specify prefix to append to the generated filename. You may also append the
frame type, filter, expose duration, and ISO 8601 timestamp. For example, if you
specify Prefix as
M45 and checked the Type and Filter checkboxes, and assuming your
filter was set to Red and your frame type is Light , the generated file names will be as
following:
o
M45_Light_Red_001.fits
o
M45_Light_Red_002.fits
· If TS was checked, a timestamp will be appended to the filename, e.g.
o
M45_Light_Red_001_2016-11-09T23-47-46.fits
o
M45_Light_Red_002_2016-11-09T23-48-34.fits
· Script : Specify an optional script to be executed after each capture is complete. The
full path of the script must be specified and it must executable. To denote success, the
script must return zero as this would allow the sequence to continue. If a non-zero value
is returned by the script, the sequence is aborted.
·
Directory : Local directory to save the sequence images to.
