That's what I find regarding temp. Even though the cooler isn't on at startup.

I've set my image dimensions the same but can't get the images to download.

My kstars has a different SDK to you for some reason and its a new version?

I am using the nightly windows build, however the newest nightlies are not working well due to the guys building the next version, let me share a link with the last stable one I am currently using.

Are you using windows? If so, what are you using as an indi server?

Here is a link to the last nightly I am still using.

Hi, I'm using kstars operating system and ekos on a pi4.
Using the beta release of this is supposed to run nightly I guess but error came up saying no qhy_ccd indi driver found.


How would I upload your nightly version to my pi? (in terminal window?)

Thanks again

Sonny, thanks so much for the link share.
This was full kstars version with your working nightly build? As when i downloaded to windows it seemed to be the whole kstars application,right?
Ive installed to computer to try! Thanks!

Still, is there a way i can get this working version onto my pi4 kstars?
Images seem to download much quicker when i run kstars on the pi itself....

When you install kstars-bleeding and indi-full on your pi4, you should get all drivers. Did you do that?

Check to make sure your PPA is the nightly build PPA

Refer to this link:

indilib.org/get-indi/download-ubuntu.html

HOWEVER! The nightlies are kinda goofy right now due to the guys working on the next release build of k-stars.

How I use k-stars is different than you apparently.

I use INDI-Server on my RPI4 which is mounted to the telescope, and I have an ethernet 1GB connection to my home network.

I run K-Stars on my desktop and remote connect to the INDI-SERVER to control everything.

My 268c works great.

One other note. I have had trouble mixing ZWO and QHY in the past. I purchased a QHY 178m for my guidescope to get rid of my QHY 268c inconsistancies.

So, I usually burn kstars image from stellarmate website.
I guess I need to find out how to download YOUR working build onto my pi? As I've ran beta version (nightly) of kstars with no joy.
When online on my pi can I download your build (if you have a link?)

Is this" sudo apt-install kstars-bleeding "?

So have you saved to your pi the "working" nightly?

Hi there,
I just received my QHY268C and it seems to work with EKOS, but with problems. I can take pictures and autofocus also seem to work (couldnt test it at stars dur to bad weather ). It also works with my ASI290mini.

I'm working with astroberry 2.0.3.

My problems at the moment:

- streaming (live video) is not possible. The icon turns green but I just get a dark screen in the preview. After the attempt of streaming I have to disconnect and reconnect the camera to get it work again.

- read mode: EKOS says the camera has 4 read modes, but there are only 3 when I'm right? What are the right values for the read mode (photographic should be 0, high gain=1, extended full well=2)?

- I always have to change the width and height from 6280x4210 to the effective number 6252x4176, otherwise I get an error

Perhaps someone can help me with the problems? Thank you and CS

Jürgen

hi there!

I'm very interested in this info. Any updated feedback? I also use astroberry 2.0.3 and would like to know how this cam performs with astroberry.

Thanks!
