Hi,
till now I didn't had big problems with the optical trains. But now I stumbled over the following:

to test my collimation I wanted to get pictures with my QHY 268c. Since the scope is not on the mount I decided to create a profile with telescope simulator and the QHY as Camera 1. The INDI control panel showed both the mount sim and tha camera. But when I tried to get a picture the Train selector was empty and also the button to get the optical train list was greyed out. I also tried to add my guiding cam (which was also shown up in the INDI panel) but same result.

When selecting my standard "newton" profile everything works fine (of course the SW EQ mount wasnt found...)

What was wrong with my procedure?

Thanks in advance

Jürgen

Edit: I have the actual version of Kstars on an Ubuntu 22.04 with the latest updates from Jasems's ppa

I have seen this happen before. What I did was manually disconnect the QHY camera from the INDI control panel and reconnect it. See if the optical train window shows up after it reconnects.

Hi Sonny,
thank you for your tip. It worked.

But perhaps it would be better if it works from the beginning

I think the QHY camera takes a while to initialize and EKOS I think ignores it.

Seems like Optical trains doesn't present itself unless all devices show a state of connected.

what I'm wondering is that with the other profile it is no problem... And also the INDI Tab for the connected QHY is shown...
