This display shows the residual errors of all observations listed in the Calibration Observations window.
The two circles are the 1-sigma and 3-sigma error circles. The red inner circle contains about 68% of the observations, and the white outer circle contains approximately 99% of the observations. The text displayed at the bottom of each circle gives their diameters in arc-minutes. The data shown above is from a typical commercial Schmidt-Cassegrain GOTO telescope.
Grayed-out points are observations which are not checked in the observations list. This indicates that they are being ignored by MaxPoint.
A small cross is displayed on the observation currently highlighted in the Observations window. In the picture above, the left-most observation is highlighted.
Clicking on any of the points will highlight it in the Calibration Observations window.
This plot can be resized by dragging a corner or side.
