Hi Jasem,
Kstars was getting this error and crashing with my DSI PRO....
"error-2017-09-11T23:38:25: Unable to find DSI. Has the firmware been loaded? "
This was happening when i would go "Kstars" - "Tools" - "Devices" - "Device Manager" to connect to my DSI PRO....
I finally realized i need to connect in a particular way, and then things were good....
I got it to work this way:
Unplug the DSI .
Plug in the DSI.
Started Kstars.
Tools-then Ekos.
Profiles-(select)My DSI PRO.
Start Indi(it connects and finds my DSI).
Go to"Focuser"tab.
Under CCD it now has "Meade Deep Sky Imager".
Click "Framing" and i now get short exposures going so i may focus.
Focus and then go to "CCD" tab.
Click"Preview" and now i get a "Fits" image.

This weekend i will give it a solid try....
Thanks....
