How to use NINA to Control Your Equipment
Jared Willson
You've got a telescope, camera, mount and maybe a whole lot more. How can you run all your equipment--likely from different manufacturers--from a single piece of software including scheduling, unparking your mount, slewing, cooling your camera, focusing your telescope, performing plate-solves to confirm pointing accuracy, guiding, dithering, and performing image capture? One answer is NINA--Nightime Imaging 'n' Astronomy software. It's free. It's capable. It's well supported by the development team and user community. And there are dozens of plugins to extend its functionality. In this presentation you'll learn how to get the most out of NINA, from configuring the user interface to setting up advanced imaging sequences that will optimize your data collection.

The Imaging SIG meets roughly every month online to discuss topics about imaging. The SIG is open to people with absolutely no experience but want to learn what it’s all about, but experienced imagers are also more than welcome, indeed, encouraged to participate.
