Description

---- Vintage stuff (2006) , but still ok ----

Since  I am using the Meade Envisage software for guiding the LX200 telescope,
I can also collect the guider scope images using the guider cam :

The Meade DSI pro II mono CCD- cam is very sensitive for guiding : 8.3 x 8.6 microns  pixel, 16 bit A/D conversion,

but  has limited number of pixel, compared by todays standard:

 752 x 582 pixels (437,664 pixels)

The cam is not cooled, but works up to 40 C, Darks can be collected for every
temperature range and will be subtracted in real time during exposure.
