Hello,

I'm facing similar problems with my ALCCD5 (should be the same camera as QHY5). When I'm using focuser tab "Framing" or guiding tab "Looping" it always breaks at some point giving GetQHYCCDSingleFrame error (-1). Intresting thing here is that camera works perfecly on CCD sequence queue tab with similar sequences.

I have tested this with the latest master branch and with tag v17.08.2.

This is debug log from the guiding tab looping:
