Cannot get Sharpcap to connect to Mount

Posted: Wed May 17, 2023 9:55 pm
In camera control, the box shows up down left right and looks normal, but if I click connect scope I get a message.
It is long but says Class Not Registered - see file image
I'm using ASCOM 6.6
ASCOM Hub, Dome, can move the mount.
There is no other version of ASCOM running.
I need help to solve this. I want to use plate solve, auto correct, using Astro Tortilla

Hi,

this sort of message usually means that some of the installation information for your ASCOM driver has been wiped or changed. Usually it can be fixed by uninstalling and then re-installing the ASCOM driver in question. From the messages I would think that you need to do this for the skycommander.telescope ASCOM driver.

Another possibility is that the ASCOM driver is 32 bit only but you are using 64 bit SharpCap, however, using the device hub would normally work around that problem.

thanks,

Robin
