Sharpcap Attempts to Auto-Connect to Hardware

#1

Post by Farzad_K »

Hello.

The latest Sharpcap I have a license for seems to attempt to connect to all devices it might see as being available. This creates a bit of chaos especially when troubleshooting is going on and we want to have a say of which software connects to what.

Is there a place in the preferences that I can use to set Sharpcap to stop trying to connect to various cameras, focuser, etc.?

Thanks a lot.

Hi Farzad,

yes, on the 'Hardware' page of the settings you can tell it not to try to auto-connect to ASCOM hardware when the camera is opened.

See https://docs.sharpcap.co.uk/4.0/#Hardware%20Tab

cheers,

Robin
