ZWO Camera Drop while using Sharpcap
Posted: Tue Sep 22, 2020 5:42 pm
I recently bought a Pegasus Power Pocket Advance which allows me to have all my power needs and USB hub and Dew Heater controls in one box. While using this box I have noticed that periodically I will use my connectivity to my ZWO imaging camera. At first I thought it was the Pegasus box but I tried using APT instead of Sharpcap Pro the other night and I did not have the same problem.
I have never seen this problem and if I use my generic 4 port USB hub or if I connect my camera directly into the laptop, there are no issues.
Could the combination of the Pegasus box and Sharpcap cause these kind of ZWO Camera drops? If I unplug and plug the camera back in, everything re-connects but I have to restart my imaging session.
I know that this is probably hard to believe that this could be a Sharpcap problem but when I tested APT instead, it rans for hours without any issues.
