How do I get a more "stable" version for Ubuntu 24.04 as there is not yet a nightly build for this platform available?
Or how can I install a previous INDI version? V2.0.6 or 2.0.5?

Does this also count for QHY cameras? Have the same issue (no items for cooler control), see my recent post.

Hi,
with INDI V2.0.7 on Ubuntu 24.04.1 (Arm64 Raspberry Pi 5) the CCD_TEMPERATURE_VALUE is always read to zero and all CCD_COOLER properties are missing:

INDI V2.0.7 on Ubuntu 24.04.1:
QHY CCD QHY268M-9d28164.CCD_TEMPERATURE.CCD_TEMPERATURE_VALUE=0
QHY CCD QHY268M-9d28164.CCD_TEMP_RAMP.RAMP_SLOPE=0
QHY CCD QHY268M-9d28164.CCD_TEMP_RAMP.RAMP_THRESHOLD=0.2000000000000000111
QHY CCD QHY268M-9d28164.LIMITS.LIMITS_BUFFER_MAX=512
QHY CCD QHY268M-9d28164.LIMITS.LIMITS_PREVIEW_FPS=10
QHY CCD QHY268M-9d28164.CCD_HUMIDITY.HUMIDITY=59.289999999999999147
QHY CCD QHY268M-9d28164.SDK_VERSION.VERSION=23.10.11

INDI V2.0.5 on Ubuntu 23.10.1:
QHY CCD QHY268M-9d28164.CCD_TEMPERATURE.CCD_TEMPERATURE_VALUE=23.399999999999998579
QHY CCD QHY268M-9d28164.CCD_TEMP_RAMP.RAMP_SLOPE=0
QHY CCD QHY268M-9d28164.CCD_TEMP_RAMP.RAMP_THRESHOLD=0.2000000000000000111
QHY CCD QHY268M-9d28164.LIMITS.LIMITS_BUFFER_MAX=512
QHY CCD QHY268M-9d28164.LIMITS.LIMITS_PREVIEW_FPS=10
QHY CCD QHY268M-9d28164.CCD_COOLER.COOLER_ON=Off
QHY CCD QHY268M-9d28164.CCD_COOLER.COOLER_OFF=On
QHY CCD QHY268M-9d28164.CCD_COOLER_MODE.COOLER_AUTOMATIC=On
QHY CCD QHY268M-9d28164.CCD_COOLER_MODE.COOLER_MANUAL=Off
QHY CCD QHY268M-9d28164.CCD_COOLER_POWER.CCD_COOLER_VALUE=0
QHY CCD QHY268M-9d28164.CCD_HUMIDITY.HUMIDITY=57.270000000000003126
QHY CCD QHY268M-9d28164.SDK_VERSION.VERSION=23.10.11

As result to that Ekos is not showing these items, too. Therefore no control of the cooler possible.

SDK on both systems the same (23.10.11), but tried also newer versions 24.01.09 and 24.03.29 without any change.

Any suggestions?

Thanks and Regards,
Detlef

Hi,
is anybody getting higher download rates than 400Kb/s (kilo bit per second) with a QHY533/268/600 USB3 connected camera?
I'm using Raspberry Pi 4B and 5 with INDI, both are showing same rates regardless if connecting to USB2 or USB3.
With a USB Stick connected to USB3 I can reach much higher rates, so USB3 at the Raspberries is generelly working.

Thanks and Regards,

How is the installation process of INDI on Ubuntu 23.10 for ARM64 platform? It seems that repository ppa:mutlaqja/ppa is not supported.
Also kstars-bleeding could not be installed.
Both are showing error messages during installation process. On 22.04 its working fine.

Hello,
was this solved in between? Is the G2-8300 working with EKOS?

Hello,
I just stambled over the same issue. Seems all values which can be set are reported twice.
For the filter wheels: The simulator reports both the same values for each filter slot, but for ATIK EFW2 the values are different. The first contains the correct (means the value which was set) and the second contains the default value. Unfortunately the second (=last) value is returned when examing a single element, which is the wrong value then.
So ... I'ld say this is a bug :unsure: :S

Hello,
I am running one CCD Cam with a filter wheel connected and one other CCD without filter wheel simultanously on two scopes.
I did not find a solution in ECOS to avoid the selection of the filter wheel when capturing with the ccd having no filter wheel. The filter wheel is selected automatically in any case even if I create a profile without filter wheel (ccd only). Is there a possibility to deselect the filter wheel option? It now changes the filter of the other ccd when capturing, which is not intended.
Thanks and Regards,
Detlef
