Hi all.

There is an "untoled"/informal (buy ZWO) Method to take Dark Flats with ASIAir Plus using the Bias Tab, after shooting Auto Flats,  and utilizing the Flats Exposure.

Those Cal. Frames are titled Bias (Not Dark Flats).

 

My question is - givven I have taken Dark Flats (using the abovementioned method) - how do I registet them in DSS - as Bias/Offset or as Dark Flats?

 

I image with a ASI2600MC Pro and I only take Lights, Flats and Bias/DarkFlats and use 

an EdgeHD8 for this Galaxy Season.

 

Thanks, Eyal

If they are the same exposure time as the flats, register as dark flats, and if not, bias.
