Piero created a new topic ' Problems with ZWO EFW' in the forum. 4 years ago

Hi all,
recently I started having problems with my 5-position ZWO EFW.
Everything used to work fine until the last time I went under the stars. On that occasion, the following morning I found out with surprise that, after a certain moment in the photo session, the EFW had stopped working silently.
The capture software (CCDciel) sent the commands to the wheel and showed as if the filter had changed, but actually it had not, so I ended up the whole photo session with all frames (more than 1000) only in the red channel :(
The problem is that it happens silently, the efw indi driver hangs and no error messages come from it, it just hangs and I have to kill it manually because also indiserver seems to lose control over it.
Has it happened to someone else? Is there a way I can send more information to investigate this issue deeper?
Thank you.
