My boink manager is running fine and work is getting done. When I run Seti my workunit shows up on setimap, but i noticed that einstein does not. Now I know that SetiMap does support einstein but for some reason it wont show a location indicator on the map. Any suggestions as to how I set it up to work? Thanks so much.

Einstein and SetiMap

Although I am not familiar with that add-on, from it's name I would expect it to only work with SETI. Also Einstein tasks do not really have a location, the location is just a variation in how the data is analyzed.

Hi! I've read that at one

Hi!

I've read that at one point the author of SetiMap planned to add support for Einstein@Home, by I don't think this has actually happened. While each individual S5R3 workunit covers a whole patch of the sky and not just a single spot like SETI@Home's units, it would make a nice picture when you plot those sky positions with the most interesting "signal candidates" found.

See this thread for example visualizations of Einstein@Home resultfiles.

Happy crunching
