Hi AstroBinners, Apologies if this question has been asked elsewhere and if so please feel free to point me to the discussion I am running NINA in a remote observatory which reports the roof condition as open or close in the Safety Monitor of NINA. I am using Loop while Safe as a loop condition. But when it becomes unsafe the sequence just ends and skip to the end of sequence instructions thus shutting down the rig. Is there a way to pause imaging/guiding when conditions are unsafe while still tracking. So when conditions become safe a plate solve occurs, guiding resumes as does imaging. Thanks for any insights, tips tricks and suggestions Best Vikas Chander |

Hello Vikas, Lucas here from the observatory. Safety monitor is less and less used as it is a bit sensitive. we recommend to get it out of the configuration. From what I know some user's are using the roof status on the user interface with a script, or pushover's notification as a trigger which is more reliable. otherwise, you can shoot the roof as except during april roof are unlikely not closing very often  Best regards ! |

Hi Vikas, I have my setup doing exactly what you want to do. You can use the sequencer powerups plugin with its When Becomes Unsafe and Once Safe instructions to stop guiding, park your mount, etc once the roofs close, and then unpark and slew, run autofocus and resume imaging. Here is an image showing how I have set it up. Create something like below and add it as a trigger to your sequences. Works like a charm. Ani  |
