Now determine if you would like the Stacking process to
Align
the Frames. This
will produce a better Image but will take a bit longer. The process examines the
image and determines alignment stars for the process. If there
aren’t
enough
alignment stars, then the command will indicate that there is a problem and you
may need to increase the gain or exposure to produce more stars for the
alignment routine.
You
want
the stacking to align the frames, then checking the
Align Frames Box
.
(else you may obtain a Pink Floyd psychedelic effect for the image).
Start
the Stacking by checking the
Enable Box
.
The stacking process will keep you informed with its status by indicating you what
the current
input
stacking number is, what the current
output
(how many frames
are stacked), and via the status, if there are any issues.
If you told MallincamSky to stack 5 images, then when the 6
th
image is taken, it
will keep displaying just the last 5 images stacked (the first image will be
removed, this is a rolling stack).
You can disable the Stacking process by just
unchecking
the
Enable Box
.
Don’t be afraid to also turn on
Dark Field
Subtraction to help eliminate the
background noise.
If the Status tells you it has an alignment failure (Not enough Stars), then just
increase the gain. This should make more stars available to the alignment
algorithm.
