Horse head - a quick test to configure my gear...again

Revision title: New data no crop

I hade a few issues in coupling the focuser, power box, and other gadgets, plus finding the correct set up in NINA.
After a few modifications I manage to run a 1 hr test on a very well know object, such as this nebulas in Orion.
So 120 images of 30" each were taken. however the day (I should say the night) presented a particularly bad seeing. Just starting the summer down here I had to turn the dew heaters on !, humidity was exceptionally high and yes, the dew point raised so much that drop of water start to condensate all over the surfaces...So, from all the images I selected only the best 75% to do the stacking.

At the end, everything worked out fine and, synchronized ! . Before I could run some of the stuff separately, but not under the same timing given by NINA (It was my fault of lacking enough experience and knowledge).
The image is not top, it has many issues but, for what I did it is fine.

In summary, my errors were connecting the proper ASCOM controllers and NOT launching other software for control, in parallel with NINA, the COM ports become crazy and that was the main issue, giving conflicts here and there...

The “AstroBin Image of the Day and Top Picks”, or IOTD/TP, is a long-running system to promote beautiful, interesting, peculiar, or otherwise amazing astrophotographs, with a focus on technical excellence. Learn more.

Submitted The date and time when you submitted this image for IOTD/TP consideration.	...
Views by Submitters (available since September 19th, 2023) Every image is assigned to 50% of available Submitters. In the event that at least 80% of them don't view the image before its time in the IOTD/TP process expires, it's assigned to the other 50% of Submitters and the process begins anew.
Promotions by Submitters When 3 distinct Submitters promote the image, it moves on to the next stage of the process: evaluation for Top Pick status. This requirement, in addition to anonymization of images and distribution to only a subset of them, prevents biases and ensures that the best images are selected.
Promotions by Reviewers When 3 distinct Reviewers promote the image, it moves on to the next stage of the process: evaluation for IOTD status.
Early dismissal Staff members have a lot of images to inspect on a daily basis, and they can dismiss images if they believe they don't meet the requirements for IOTD/TP selection. If an image is dismissed 5 times, it's removed from the process. This streamlines the process and ensures that any bias present in promotions could be overruled by other staff members.
