hello
I am using windows 10 up to date with a zwo asi294 mc pro camera and a baader steeldrive focusser with steelgo software installed and working ok with the focusser on Com 3. Sharpcap version SharpCap Version 3.1.5038.0
The Sharpcap focusser module setup button is not responding and if the connect tickbox is clicked the error message appears that com1 does not exist.
Log below:

Re: focusser com port not found, setup not responding
Hi,
I think the COM1 does not exist error is probably accurate - ie the COM port is not found or maybe it has changed to a different port number. The bug is that you can't get to setup to change the COM port - looking into it.
cheers,
Robin
