Everything was guiding great until I added a new ASI294MC camera. I’m not sure if I have old issue with the QHY5 cameras not being supported anymore.
Since adding the new imaging camera the info box at the bottom of the guide camera panel says; PA drifting forward, PA driving reverse and stops at GUIDE_RA scope cannot reach point after 21 iterations. Possible mount or backlash problems...
While imaging I’m seeing very slow performance, multiple cursors, crashing etc. I’ve tried both connecting directly with USB to my RPI4 and the hub on the back of the ASI294. I’ve tried multiple USB cables. I’ve tried using guider options SSAG and QHYCCD. I didn’t think last night to enable logs, can these be generated in the daytime or does it need to be a live session? Ekos stability improves with the SSAG removed.
The camera does capture an image fine, but I’m not able to change the bin from 1x1 (says option not supported).
I’m not sure what other information I need to gather to troubleshoot.
I’m also not opposed to buying a new guider if that’s the issue. Any suggestions for models would be appreciated.
