Hi,
i have check the code a little bit, but my programming skills are not the best.
In the sequencjob.cpp in the function capture it looks like that function getActiveCamera or getActiveChip does not return the wrong, because otherwise the exposure would be started
Maybe someone with better understanding of the whole code could finde the issu

@Max
@Damian
Thanks for your replais. I have now Downloadded the version from RisingCam's. Copied the files from the SDK into the folder, but then i got the error that the driver is not working.
I installed the software for linux "RisingView" there the camera is working.
I have looked into the software and here was located the libary "libtoupcam.so", I replaced it in /usr/lib/x86_X64-linux-gnu/libtoupcam.so and now it is working.

The SDK Version is here 53.21907.20221218, would be great. When this is the Version which be used in KStars Version 3.6.3.

Thanks for your help

Thanks for your reply max.
What should i do now?
Does this would be fixed with the new SDK?
Or has this to be fixed by Touptek?

@Dirk: Yes, camera is connected to 12V :P Under windows it is working, so Supply and USB should be OK

Thanks for your supports!

Hi Max,

i have activated the log file, settings you can see in the picture and the profile where i only activated the Toupcam-Driver.
Also i added a screenshot of the lsusb, where you can see that the USB3.0 Camera is connected.
In the actual setting only the camera is connected, nothing else.
Below the data from the log file.

Hi Lanco,

thanks for your feedback.
I have downloaded your package and run the two scripts and then i started Kstars and connected to the local server.
But still the same problem, the camera is still not available.

Cable and Powersupply are connected, checked several USB 3.0 cable.

Hello,
I bought a new Touptek 2600c (ATR3CMOS26000KPA) before. However, this does not work with the latest driver.

I have updated the driver as described in the link below, but unfortunately no success.
Toupcam Camers

The camera itself works because it works under Windows with the software from Touptek.
Maybe someone can help me here or someone already has the same problem.

So now i had time to check everything and now it is running. Maybe some tuning in the position but scope now always in center position.
Problem was something in the rasperry, i did a complete reset and then it was working.

@Jarno Pannanen: Thx for your support
@Tomas Kalisch: When i have finished it completely i will post it, but for this i have to do some comments in the code ;-D

I have tested it now with the dome and mount in reallity and tried the calibration procedure for the slaving paramters for the dome.
When i only move the DEC axis of the mount it is working correct, but when i bring the DEC back to 90° and then move only the RA axis it is not moving correct.
When i slew the RA axis to the east side the dome first moves to the east side then it slew to the mirrored side (log file). This happens every time.

When North = 0°, West= 90° and East 270° --> DEC is working
When North = 0°, West= 270° and East 90° --> AR is working

Where can this come from?

When someone need more informations do not hesitate to contact me.

Thanks for your replies.
