SharpCap V4.1 Compatibility with PLL Eagle LE

#1

Post by kevastro55 »

I have recently installed SharpCap V4.1 32B version on my Primaluce Lab Eagle LE mini pc.
Operating System Windows 10, Processor J4005 2GHz 4GB,
Camera Altair Astro 533C Pro Tech.
Can you please confirm if V4.1 is compatible with this set up. My problem is that most of the functions within the Tools drop down box initially fail to load properly and give an error message indicating that my version of SharpCap has insufficient memory and advising to either switch to the 64B version of SharpCap or to change the Binning setting. Accepting the message results in an immediate shut down of SharpCap V4.1. I did change the binning with polar alignment selected, but although the system loaded up it did not register the changes in alt/az position reliably.
Also, the West and East Rotation Buttons for Polar Alignment do not send signals to the mount. All other functions seem to be operating normally. I also have version V4.0 installed on my Eagle LE and it works perfect and has done so since it was installed. Any advice would be greatly appreciated.
Thank you.

Hi,

I think I might be able to help with that - it looks like the updated 'SharpCap.exe' 32-bit file for 4.1 is missing a flag that tells the operating system that it can use more than 2Gb of memory. If I can apply that flag for the next update then it should help...

cheers,

Robin
