Software Training
Imaging software is often the hardest part of astrophotography to learn. Drivers, profiles, autofocus settings, plate solving and guiding parameters all interact, and online forums rarely match your exact equipment. Our one-on-one training sessions walk you through it on your own computer, with your own gear.
We offer sessions for N.I.N.A., PHD2 and Sequence Generator Pro, usually on Zoom or TeamViewer so we can see your screen and, if you wish, take control to show you directly.

Software Training: Frequently Asked Questions
Do I need my telescope connected?
Ideally yes, so we can test drivers and settings. Some parts can be done in simulator mode.
How long is a session?
Contact us for current details. Most people get their profile running in one session and come back for fine-tuning.
Stuck on software?
Book a session and spend your clear nights imaging instead of troubleshooting.
