Features - Polar Align via PS - PAPS
Polar Align via Plate Solving - PAPS depends on plate solving so you have to configure and ensure Point Craft is working correctly. It is an implementation of the 3-point polar alignment available in many mounts (and other applications), but powered and automated by plate solving. PAPS uses code and mathematical problem solutions by Rumen Bogdanovski, who made it for the INDIGO and AIN Imager projects - he was very kind to allow using his code to do the calculations in APT! An essential part of the process is that the 3 check points should be away from the celestial pole. The best places are near the celestial equator as plate solving has greater accuracy there.
