I am in version Kstars 3.7.0, Indi 2.0.7 and Libasi 1.34 under Ubuntu Mate 22.04
Since I upgraded to version 3.7.0, I cannot enable cooling after connecting to the camera.
I checked with another program, I can activate the cooling. This is not a hardware problem.
Could you please help me?
A couple of users reported this but I cannot reproduce (with 178MC-Cooled) on any OS. I tried Linux, MacOS and Windows. Apparently it is a real problem though. Is this with a completely fresh equipment profile?
I am having the same issue with an ASI2600MM camera. Cannot enable cooling. I have made new profiles and new optical trains. Happens on macOS as well as on Stellarmate OS. I have sent a log file that will hopefully be useful.
I believe this has been fixed. Jasem compiled the drivers and push it to the update site. You will need to pull an update to your INDI server machine. It fixed it for me with the ASI2600MM. Hopefully it will fix it for you as well.
I have just created (today) a new setup of Kstars/indi/ekos and have run into the same problem with cooling of my ASI294MCpro not being available. I have tried a number of different OS on the raspberry pi4 and all are similarly afflicted in this version. Here is a list of the observed behaviour.
- The main 294 indi panel does not display any cooling power percentage. The field is completely missing
- The recorded temperature in the indi gui remains at 0.00 (this is not sensing temp at all)
- When I try to set a new target temp in indi this results in no transfer of the set temp to the saved section and when "set" is pressed it actually takes the figure on the Max dT (c/min) section and converts this to a set temp in the verbose debug line at the bottom. However nothing does get set in actuality
- also trying to set new parameters in the control section of the indi camera gui seems to save, in that the info does change on "setting", to the saved area in the gui but this information is subsequently lost and reverts to defaults on restarting the driver despite saving the config in the options section
- in the ekos camera gui all the cooling info is greyed out.
I am currently using Ubuntu Mate 22.04 newly configured with the latest stable Kstars/indi/ekos. I have tried the nightly with no change in behaviour.
This is not a hardware problem as I am using a slightly older Raspian based setup which shows the cooling and the driver and camera behave as expected.
Does this also count for QHY cameras? Have the same issue (no items for cooler control), see my recent post.
Update works only partially because there is no nightly build for Ubuntu 24.04 yet available:
E: The repository 'ppa.launchpadcontent.net/mutlaqja/indinightly/ubuntu noble Release' does not have a Release file.
