50% success for me but I am 100% positive that it is my fault.
I purchased an Atik 314E directly from Synoptics this week. It came in an Atik box but the camera is labeled "Synoptics". (I understand Synoptics and Atik are joined at the hip but that is besides the point
The camera works perfectly using Artemis on Windows. It has TEC cooling but not set-point.
First off, I use Astroberry. Secondly, I only did a "Software Update" using the Ubuntu Mate utility. I did not launch the terminal and type "sudo apt-get update", "sudo apt-get upgrade". So keep that in mind.
The Synoptics CCD is replacing my Altair CMOS camera.
First attempt to get it working under Ekos involved simply changing "Altair" to "Atik" in the dropdown list in "My Astro Gear" configuration. When I tried to connect I got the message:
Unable to establish:
+Atik
Please ensure the device is connected and powered on.
After some thought I decided to see if I could manually start indiserver with the Atik driver from the terminal:
indiserver -v indi_atik_ccd
I was expecting it to fail but it actually worked and it was waiting for a client connection!
I torpedoed it and restarted it using:
indiserver -v indi_atik_ccd indi_simulator_telescope
Then I re-entered Ekos and created a new connection called "foo" where I told it to use a "remote" connection with devices: Atik and Telescope Simulator.
Ekos connected! I now see a tab called "Synoptics USB 2.0 EF Camera (A)". I was able to snap a 1-second exposure. It worked.
One problem I see is when I go to the Ekos "CCD" tab the "Cooler On/Off" controls are disabled.
Finally, in INDI Control Panel in the General Info tab the Driver info says:
Atik
indi_atik_ccd
Version 2.2
Interface 6
Like I said, this is probably my fault. "Software Update" probably doesn't bring in bleeding edge INDI development.
Sorry for droning on and on. Thanks for any feedback.
