My QHY cameras aren't showing up....
Posted: Sat May 14, 2022 4:20 am
I figured this out - needs the QHY5III series driver also - the first option in additional tasks for it to work - am I doing this right? Even though it went in the 3.2 directory, 4.0 also sees QHY294MPRO. So I think we're good - will have to try imaging another time.
Hi, I am coming back to imaging after 1.5 years. Everything was working fine when I last used it - with a QHY163M, Windows 10, SharpCap 3.2.
I upgraded to SharpCap 4+. I also installed the new QHY drivers, the Allinone driver. That's all I need to do get things working right? But it is not seeing my new QHY294M as well as my old QHY163M which was working last I used it but not anymore. What am I doing wrong? In the QHY driver install, I am selecting the SharpCap SDK but I am not selecting the application itself (which is given as an option below) since I already have it. I then don't select any other drivers for "additional tasks". I assume these are all CCD drivers. QHY Polemaster does work.
Also during install it asks me for the path and I first chose SharpCap 3.2 and then I chose SharpCap 4.0 but both 3.2 and 4.0 don't see the cameras.
I assume I don't need ASCOM - I've never needed it, so I didn't choose any of those options.
Thanks a lot - apologies if this is already answered anywhere but I spend a couple of hours tonight getting up to speed and this is now my current roadblock. I hope this is a simple fix due to missing some kind of a step during install.
