hmm OK thanks for the update I am using everything original and USB3. If I run the Linux ASI cameras SW package I can get frames but INDI gets nothing and just exposure loops forever.

What version of INDI and/or Ekos are you using? StellarMate, AstroBerry, KStars-bleeding stable, nightly?

I am using an ASI6200MM as well for imaging with an ASI120MC-S (USB 3) guide cam and I have problems with imaging as well. It seems that the ASI driver mixes up communication with the ASI6200 and the ASI120. I am using the nightly builds but I have compiled the ASI driver myself using the 1.5.0430 SDK from May 5, 2020, available on the ZWO website.

EDIT: I need to do more tests and collect debug logs to be able to understand what's going on though. Unfortunately I'll need clear skies for that.

I am using INDI 1.8.0 and was trying to use KStars 3.4.2 but also just python code I wrote to control it. I had my python code working with another CCD and INDI without issue so I figured this would be a easy swap over but that is proving not to be the case. I will try the nightly builds from the ASI Driver SDK and see if that helps, Thanks!

Unfortunately the nightly builds of the libasi driver fail at the moment. Jasem is looking into it.

See my problem description in this post .
