I'm trying to write a script that at the end of a session warms the camera up, and when this is finished turns off the Window Heater (ZWO camera).
I can't find a command for the window heater control. Is it not an option?

Re: Scripting Window Heater Control
Hi,
if you are using the sequence editor then there is a step 'Set <Control Name> to <Control Value>' which can be used to set the value for any camera control. If you add that step while your camera is connected in SharpCap then the dropdown for 'Control Name' will show all the names of the controls on the camera, allowing you to pick the right one.
Hope this is what you were looking for.
cheers,
Robin

Re: Scripting Window Heater Control
Thanks for explaining. Lots more control with 'Set <Control Name> to <Control Value>' than I realized.
Using sequencer: Set Window Power Heater to Off does the job.
