-Part of the value of using a Time/Noise ratio as the input for the calculation of the required number of sub-exposures is that it should tend to compensate for the differences in relative noise for sub-exposures of various lengths.  A shorter sub-exposure would have a lower time/noise ratio, so it has less capacity to improve a integrated image.  Therefore, a disproportionately higher number of short exposures are needed to achieve a given time/noise ratio in an integrated image.</para>

 <para>As an example, consider the calculation of the number of sub-exposures required when two sub-exposures times were compared: a 300 second sub-exposure vs a 30 second sub-exposure. The 300 second sub-exposure had a calculated noise of 22.1, resulting in a sub-exposure time/noise ratio of 13.6. When the 'noise increase %' is raised to force the exposure time down to 30 seconds, we see a calculated noise of 9.47, resulting in a much lower sub-exposure time/noise ratio of 3.2.  The 300 second exposure is of significantly higher potential quality than the 30 second exposure. We will demand the default time/noise ratio of 80 for integration in both of these cases.</para>

     when the dialog is closed. For this reason on lower powered machines, once the tool has been used, it is recommended
