I've messed up something and sharpcap is having problems 'seeing' my ZWO EAF

#1

Post by pooky2483 »

I successfully installed Sharpcap along with Stellarium, Cart Du Ciel, CPWI, PHD2, APT, NINA and ASCOM.

Equipment I have is;
Celestron CGX Equatorial 1100 SCT, ZWO ASI183 PRO Cooled 1" CMOS USB3.0 Deep Sky Imaging Camera, ZWO-ASI120MINI, ZWO 5V EAF, Z485-OAG-MkII (Off Axis Guider).

However, I have messed up something to do with my ZWO EAF as I get the following error and I don't know how to fix it.
I've tried uninstalling/reinstalling and cleaning the registry (with AVG TuneUP), and doing a manual registry search for anything left, but I still get the error.

Hi,

somehow you have selected a Celestron CPWI as your focuser rather than the ZWO EAF - go to the SharpCap settings, then the hardware page then change the selected focuser back to the ZWO option. See https://docs.sharpcap.co.uk/4.0/#Hardware%20Tab

cheers,

Robin
