SBIG Carousel

Proper configuration of R,G,B,C,L filters in a SBIG STL carousel

Starting where the two white hash marks on the 5 slot carousel is slot #4 for a clear filter then working counter- clockwise is as follows.

Slot 3 is Blue, Slot 2 is Green, Slot 1 is Red, Slot 5 is lum filter

Be sure to check the white hash marks on the side of the carousel to make sure they are all uniform with no parts of the white area missing.

I had a problem with one of my carousels where the white hash mark was extended much more then the others, this caused my filter wheel to read the carousel incorrectly.

I simply painted over the longer white hash mark with black touch up paint then painted a new white hash mark with white-out in the same place but now uniform in lenght with the other white hash marks and the problem was solved
