GuiderExpose

Syntax

CCDCamera.GuiderExpose ( Duration )

Parameters

Double Duration - length of exposure in seconds

Returns

Boolean - True if successful

Remarks

Starts a single autoguider exposure. Use GuiderRunning to check when the exposure is complete. Taking a single exposure will auto-select a guide star, which will be used for tracking via GuiderTrack.

If the current guider is the SBIG w/AO, then invoking GuiderExpose updates the image displayed on the Locate tab, as well as updating MaxIm DL's Autoguider Image. This will cause a new guide star position to be automatically selected by the AO-7.
