Ghost ASI camera keeps crashing Ekos

Good morning
since a few night I cannot longer use Ekos, it keeps crashing on connections of devices
Local installation of Ekos 3.6.2 on Win10 connects to Stellarmate 1.7.4

I have been able to determine crash is due to camera driver loading
I have a Camera 1: ZWO CCD (Zwo Asi 533)
Camera 2: ZWO Camera 1 (Zwo Asi 120mm)

I have been able to grab a screenshot before the crash and it shows a "ghost camera" that I do not have

If I remove either one from the configuation ekos loads but I do not have either the guide or the main CCD
I tried to remove and reinstall but as the profiles where there after reinstall I guess the install was not clean
I also tried to reinstall Stellarmate from fresh image but that did not solve either

Any clue/suggestion?
Thanks
Mirko

Mirko,

Just use ZWO CCD for both cameras, That's the way I run my similar set up. There are issues using the ZWO Camera 1 and ZWO Camera 2 drivers.

Also which ZWO ASI 120 are you using? If it's the old style ASI 120MM or ASI 120MC with the USB 2 "B" style connector, it won't work on Linux. You need either the new ASI 120MM-S or ASI 120 MC-S with the USB 3 connector or the ASI 120 Mini with the USB "C" connector.

HTH

You cannot mix "ZWO CCD" with "ZWO Camera 1". Either use "ZWO Camera 1" and "ZWO Camera 2" or just "ZWO CCD".
