For those of you who haven't yet tried Russ' Log Analyzer, you're missing something! It's really great! It's now up to version 1.24.
I don't think anybody's said this...so I will. ACP Log Analyzer is an outstanding way to get the times for the various ACP functions for your setup to be entered into ACP Planner. No more guessing or manual analysis required!
I'd also be interested in how efficient everybody's observing runs are. One of the statistics given is total imaging time as a percentage of the total run time (ex waits). My setup usually runs at between 87% and 91% efficiency (usually only 1 or 2 targets). How's everybody else doing?
This is a great enhancement. Makes reviewing logs quick and easy.
One thought for future versions. It would be very convenient if for instance you were looking at the FWHM graph and see one of the points of the graph that you wanted to analyze. If you clicked on that point the log would automatically scroll to that time frame?
And thanks also to everybody for all the feedback on ACP Log Analyzer. It's now at version 1.27. If you've already got the app installed, next time you run it Analyzer will offer to download and install the latest update. If you don't have it already, you can download it from here: http://www.rarcher.org/astro/_files/...lyzerSetup.msi
I really like the idea of being able to click on a graph data point and then for the log to scroll to the relevant point - I'll see if I can do that for the next version
EDIT: Jack, I've added the feature you suggested.
Now, clicking on any datapoint in a graph scrolls the log to the associated line. That's in version 1.28 (same download URL as above).

Boy, this has come a long way from the first version. I use it too, and really appreciate what you've done. What a great effort.
Please take time to have a turkey dinner (or maybe a pheasant dinner) this weekend in remembrance of your American ACP cousins who get a few days off this week to remember their British heritage.
Thanks,
