Hi Folks,
I have started playing around with INDI web manager and was going to try an imaging session tonight using Kstars on Windows. While testing with my ALTAIRASTRO 26C I noticed that before every image the TEC fan stops spinning for a second then spins back up and the temperature of the CCD drops. So over the course of a 3-image test sequence, the temp dropped from -5C to -3C and the EKOS never tried to re-enforce the temp so would image no matter what the CCD temp is. It checks to ensure the temp is within the limit at the start of the sequence but that's it. I have run this experiment in Kstars Linux and Kstars Windows so I'm pretty sure this is an issue with the INDI web manager it's like the CCD driver restarts before every image. I have attached the logging from a 3-image sequence but it doesn't reveal much. I'm not sure if there is a way to get logging from the web manager.
Has anyone else noticed this issue?
