I want to test the plate solving embedded in Ekos with ccd simulator. Just to be sure I have the good parameters setup before going on the field.
Is it possible and if yes how to do it ?
If you have GSC catalog installed then you can slew to any place, and use the align module to solve. But you can't really prepare for the field. In the field, IF solving fails, then save a few of the captured images. Then you can play with solve-field and try all different parameters on them to see which one works best for you. So save images from the field.
