STAR Atlas:PRO frequently asked questions - FAQs
When I installed the ADVANCED Edition, STAR Atlas:PRO said I need to install the SAP/INET Add On.
This feature is one from the Advanced Version and is a great enhancement for the user. It allows the user to download pictures, rapidly, from the Digitized Sky Survey on the Internet and automatically retrieve and process Comet Orbital Elements ( see What can I learn about Comets ). With a little practice these pictures can be truly remarkable.
Turn ON the [SAP/INET] Option. Refer to the STAR Atlas:PRO Configuration section of your Quick Start Guide and Set the [SAP/INET] Option to ON.
To do this: -
1.
Open Star Atlas: PRO.
2.
Click on [Chart Prefs]
on the main menu.
3.
Next click on
[Regional Settings] (bottom left)
4.
Click on [Advanced
Edition Options] (bottom left)
5.
Now click on the [SAP/GSC]
Access to The Guide Star Catalogue (GSC). and [SAP/INET] Internal Communications
Module buttons so that they show a Ö (tick mark) in the relevant boxes.
You need only do this once, when you setup the program. By design, this setting is not altered by the [Restore Defaults] command in the [Chart Prefs] menu.
