Product description

The PegasusAstro FlatMaster is a new flatfield electroluminescent panel. It provides a uniform source of illumination and produces high quality flat field frames for astrophotography and photometric captures.

Dimmable EL Panel: Unlike other EL panels in the market, the FlatMaster can easily adjust its brightness. Forget sheets of paper between your telescope and the panel. Remote control the EL lamp of your panel. Store the brightness per filter and immediately retrieve the value you need.

Manual Button: Device has a small push button which sets five (5) levels of brightness. In case you would like to manually operate the FlatMaster, no problem, just click the push button to control the brightness.

One cable operation: Only one USB cable provides power and control of your panel.

Standalone Software: Software allows to set filter names and store / retrieve brightness levels of your FlatMaster panel

ASCOM Compliant: FlatMaster is supported by the PegasusAstro ASCOM switch driver which allows ASCOM compliant programs to control the panel.

Got this for Christmas but couldn't use it till January with the weather. I could connect to it and control it from NINA. In February it stopped connecting NINA and via the FlatMaster app but I could still use it manually. Now it keeps resetting itself to max brightness after 20 or 30 seconds of use. So I can't use it manually either unless it's for narrowband filters which need full brightness. Tried with a multitude of cables and to different power sources (Ultimate Powerbox v2, computer) and USB2 v USB3. Same issue. Would not recommend.
