Re: New user question about the "colored lines" on Event Prediction screen

 

Hi Steven,

Are you running Windows and are you using the OccultWatcher Desktop client?

The red line is the 1-sigma zone, blue is the edge. Your position is more than 3 sigma away and the chances are not great for that location.

If you get the events inside OW Desktop, it will show you probablities and a lot more information.

Hristo.

I am gonna try to capture the "Zelinda" occultation tonight (2023-04-27 00:39:54). My location on the attached screenshot is the yellow circle to the left of the "N" in New York.

Can someone point me to documentation that explains these lines. Even a quick description?of my chances for this event?would be very helpful.

I will be trying the Dynamene event the following day also.

SODIS + OccultWatcher + SharpCap = new scripts for occultation events

 

Hello,

Here a short preview of the future OccultWatcher Addin and the SharpCap script.
I'm still programming the "capture" part, but you can see in the PDF the actual status of my codes.

Please send me your comments and ideas (if it is not too complicated to add, I will add it if it simplify the preparation and the capture of the occultation events).
One "new" idea I have is to add a "voice" in my script. I found how to do.

Part OccultWatcher Addin:
The Addin is finished ... but it needs an small update of OccultWatcher.
I received a beta version from Hristo. It will be necessary to wait until this new version of OccultWatcher is released.

Part SharpCap scripts:
First I write the codes of the script for the future version 4.1 (some changes in ASCOM).
The beta 4.1 version is working properly, but it is still not an official released version.
In addition, I updated my LED_Calibration script that can be started in the new "Occultation" script.

Regards,
Jean-Francois

Oliver, the plugin works on my system:?? W7,?? CdC v4.2.1 (64bit),??? OW 5.0.1.3

I had to set the chart to show J2000 and not apparent to get the star centered (as explained on the web page).

Re: OW Desktop - Editing filters issue

 

I'm guessing the number is expected to be an integer but no validation is made to show to the user they have not entered an integer number. So when Ow tried to read 2.0 as an integer an error occurs.

This is unliekly to be fixed soon, just use whole numbers.

Hristo.

Re: OW Desktop - Editing filters issue

 

Hi Bryan,

What value are you putting to the asteroid size? Does it have a decimal separator?

If you can obtain a DebugView log of the error: and send it to me I look into it further.

Hristo.

Re: OccultWatcher 5.1 & OWC - Update 3

 

Hi Bj?rn,

I don't think that reinstall of OW will make any difference.

This problem will be hard to troubleshoot further. Condiering that this is currently an isolated case i.e. noone else has this issue I would suggest that you try searching for the error you are getting in Google and see if you may find anything useful.

I may be wrong about TLS 1.2 but the type of error you are getting used to be caused by this issue. If you are running Windows 10 with latest updates this would not be a problem. Try updating .NET Framework to the latest version manually and see if this helps.

Hristo.

You will need to have a vesrions of Windows that supports the latest SSL encryption algoritm known as TLS 1.2.

Windows 10 running with latest updates should do that.

After the update to 5.1 an issue was discovered that was present previsously but was not reported before. The issue is that after a database purge (which happened automatically with the 5.1 update), the following feeds would not get any events that were last updated more than 1 month ago:

Observation Campaigns (Global)
Community Tags (Global)
Planned Observations (Global)

I have already fixed the issue on the server and released a new version of OW Desktop 5.1.0.2

Please update and run a Synchronisation as the 3 feeds above will be purged after the update.

I have now made it possible to report observations via OWC. For passed event click on the telescoep icon and choose 'Report observation' then fill in the form below and submit.

As old events will not be displayed in OW Desktop for people to report their observations you will need to find the event manually on OWC.
