Assuming I have captured a FITS file on disk. Can I specify the CCD simulator to load the FITS as simulate the image capturing?
What I'm trying to do is to test the offline platesolving in EKOS.
I have very limited time in image capturing session on the field, so I just want to test the offline platesolving, making sure it would work when I'm on the field.

Thanks!

You can also create a Scheduler job, with a dummy name and a dummy sequence file, the Simulators profile, and your FITS file as alignment target. When you execute the schedule, the first thing the Scheduler will do is solve your FITS to find the target coordinates.
