autofocus for this filter.
6. Flat Focus Position: this value is set automatically once you finish
autofocus for some filter. If the sequence queue contains flat images,
then Ekos would first move the focuser to the filter absolute focus
position before capturing the flat images. This to ensure both your light
and flat frames are exactly captured using the same per-filter offset.
Let's take an example. Suppose the capture sequence is running and the current
filter is Green, so the relative offset is already set to +300. The next image in the
sequence uses Hydrogen Alpha (H_Alpha) so before Ekos captures the next
frame, the following actions take place:
· Since Luminosity is specified as the locked filter and auto-focus is checked,
the filter is changed to Luminosity
· A focus offset is -300 is applied since the prior filter Green was moved +300
previously.
· Auto Focus process is initiated.
· Once Auto Focus is complete, the filter is changed to H_Alpha.
· A focus offset of -1200 is applied.
· Capture sequence is resumed.
