PHD & QHY168c dithering

Can I use dither in PHD with long deep sky exposures with a QHY168 camera? Similar to how BYEOS does it?

Thanks for looking

Absolutely, you can.

Kind regards,

That’s good to know Glenn. I have a MX+ mount controlled by TSX and a Orion SS auto guilder. I haven’t tried Voyager yet, but if it can do proper dithering with the QHY168, I will give it a try.

Yes, it works fine. I found you need to make sure the settle time after the dither is long enough for things to stabilise. I use a long PHD2 integration time and had some weird problems until I fixed it
