PS2 Solving Speed and FoV

Sequence Generator Plate Solving
1

Hello,

I have been using a 1.53d FoV system for a while (80mm F6 refractor), and I had PS2 working for me like a champ. After I started using my 0.53d FoV system (C8 F7), I noticed PS2 got really slow, making Ansvar look like a champ.

I did not know what was going on until I used PS2 to solve a high scale image and it worked super fast. This makes me wonder if PS2 is has FoV limitation?

Thanks

Not that I’m aware of. It’s not surprising that smaller FOVs take longer to solve though. ANSVR is likely better at picking an initial catalog. I’m not sure. We don’t have insight to what happens internally. That would be a question for their developers.

Thanks,
