In the telescope settings, you need to define the telescope focal length in mm. In the camera settings, you need to give the image width and height in pixels which, for the 8300M, is 3352 x 2552.
I hope that helps,

Thanks for the reply. online it says the width and height is 3326 x 2504. does it matter? seems close enough…
thanks
I believe your values are correct and should be used. I actually have the ST-8300M and I guess it is different from the STT-8300M. Sorry.
The image scale field in the camera tab (4.4) and the Plate Solve Tab (4.5) also has a little calculator button next to it you can use to just enter information you have about your rig and it will calculate the scale for you.
