Just ran a short sequence with logging to file enabled.
Basically, got the same behavior except the guider calibration failed in the very beginning too.
Attaching the log.
Timeline;
20:45:41 Guide calibration starts but never finishes - RA forward goes wrong (opposite) way, RA reverse continues in the same direction. I aborted.
20:47:14 Restarted calibration. Lost guiding star. Failed. My fault. Increased exposure time.
20:48:15 Restarted calibration. Now OK.
21:15:51 Meridian Flip.
21:18:00 (auto) Align. result: 16 arcsec.
21:18:26 Guide calibration starts but never finishes - RA forward goes wrong (opposite) way, RA reverse continues in the same direction. I aborted.
21:20:06 Restarted calibration. Now OK.
21:22:59 Stopped guiding to check Align.
21:23:06 First Capture & Solve gives 4' error -> can this be the result of RA going in the the same direction for too long?
Thanks!
