I am trying to perform a sensor analysis with a ZWO ASI2600MC Pro camera with both the native driver and the ASCOM driver. I have completed the analysis with the native driver, but every time I start the analysis with the ASCOM driver it hangs at some point. My latest attempt skipped the bin testing. The process always gets through the first pass and I either lock up on the darks or the gain analysis after the darks.
- Any suggestions on what I can do to complete this analysis?
Will changing the "Capture Area" affect the results in a meaningful way? I have not tried that yet.
Where can I look for logs that might indicate the problem?
For background I am doing this for two reasons. I want to understand if my camera is operating within the expected ranges, but more importantly I am trying to understand the impact of the 0 to 100 gain range of the ASCOM driver. My primary tool to do long exposure imaging is Sequence Generator Pro which only uses the ASCOM driver. If, as I fear, the ASCOM driver is really lacking I need to move to an image acquisition tool that can use the native driver.
I am running SharpCap version 3.2.6482.0
Thanks for any and all help,
Mark
