I now have positive progress, happy to report that it is working now.

I bought a Stellarmate X to get the much better performance, installed the initial OS 1.7.8 release,
and then used the software updater to get the latest packages (Now it worked !) and attached the
Wanderer Astro Cover v3 to one of it's USB 3.0 ports.

Everything now works, I can control everything including the Filter Wheel filter presets.

I have also tested plugging it into the Pegasus Astro Hub (can deliver more power to the USB port),
it also works in that configuration.

I use these settings:

FILTER EXPOSURE BRIGHTNESS ISO
Seconds FILTER WHEEL PRESET
Clear not working, still to bright 1600
Luminance 0.400 10 1600
HA 3.000 255 1600
HB 0.400 50 1600
OIII 0.400 45 1600
SII 9.000 255 1600

Only thing left is, that the maximum power level when I use my MS Surface Pro (2015)
and the Wanderer Astro Console I can get much more light from this setup (seems like double the power)
than from the Stellarmate/Kstars setup. BElieve it is a driver issue.
