Re: guiding relays vs scope controls

I seem to have problems with the autoguiding relays of my sbig camera. Haven't really objectivated the issue but it shows up with two different mounts using two different cables, so I guess there not much room for doubt.

I have therefore switched my guiding from guider relays to telescope control. Is the performance going to be markedly different? So far, everything is fine, but I am using a very short focal length (540mm) and have had to cut the aggressivness in half, all other things being equal.

You'd probably getting more response to this on the SBIG list. And the only SBIG cameras that use relays are the ST-4 and STV. So I suspect that "guider relay" is a Maxim DL term ?
