Hello, 

I'm new to using Vstar, and I'm unsure of what units are being used in the program, specfically for frequency and period. 

What are the units that Vstar is using for frequency and period? I've checked in the manual and can't seem to find anything. 

Thank you!

Hi Sunna

Have a look at the Phase Plot section of the user manual, for example, which refers to period in days. This can also be found in the light curve control dialog (days per mean bin), period analysis section and elsewhere.
