Pixel error threshold when centering

The scope centering settings have the following entry: “Attempt to center X time(s) until error is less than Y pixels”.

Does the pixel count take binning into account? If I use 3x3 binning for automatically centering the target, but would like to have the object centered within some number of pixels at 1x1 binning (since that’s the binning level I do my imaging at), do I have to take the binning into account or not? It would be nice if this setting didn’t depend on the binning level used when centering.

You do. We do not account for this. Given that this is a profile setting and the binning at which plate solving is done is not typically variable, just set this once and you don’t have to worry about it.
