Thank you all for your replies.
The Atik 460 is cooled to -5 c is that OK ?
I will read through the BASS project user guide to see if I can create a master dark frame.
I assume the same procedure applies to flats and that I need to take a set say 10 after each observing run. ?
My Lhires II has a built in flat lamp.
