Hi!

I just ran into a strange situation: I changed my setup to only having a single ZWO camera and the mount - to do some experiments. But now suddenly I can not capture with Ekos - Ekos crashes when I try. This seems related to the fact that there are no frame dimensions in Ekos. However, they are identified in the Indi Control window. And I can capture with Indi control window. And if I hit "reload configuration" in Ekos, Ekos crashes.

See here:



What's happening here? Oh, and I just upgraded Stellarmate to see if that helped. Did not. And I deleted the ZWO CCD config file and rebooted. Same thing again.

Ideas?

Have you double checked that your ASI183 camera is in the Primary optical train?

The EFW driver is now ZWO EFW. Maybe the filter wheel is missing and therefore causing the trouble.

Do you have a stacktrace of the crash?

Hi!

Unfortunately, no stack trace. In this setup I had only one camera - definitely the right one in the Primary train, but again, I'll test more later today. And there is no filter wheel in this configuration - just the mount and one camera.

Ah, sorry Magnus, got it.

If the same problem occurs, it might be helpful to create a new profile. I experienced a similar problem a while ago which I could not track down. But a new profile resolved it.

Hi!

Yes, well, this was a new profile But I'll follow your advice and try again later today.

I just was baffled by Ekos not getting any frame info when it so clearly was there in the Indi window..

Then, later at night, I changed back to my much more complex configuration with 2 imaging cameras and one guiding camera and a filter wheel. NOW the ASI 183 worked flawlessly.....
