Hi All,
Hoping that someone can help me. I have an SBIG St2000xm CCD which I have been using flawlessly for the last 6 months, however tonight I have had a major breakdown. Setting up for my imaging run tonight, after polar aligning 3 star alignment, and focusing, I had an issue with cooling. I use APT for imaging, and using the cooling aid, set the temp to -10 and let it cool. The 1st issue was that it did not stop at -10 and kept cooling. After fighting with this for 30 minutes or so, I decided to use the SBIGDriverChecker to see if there were any updates to the drivers, and there was. I allowed the SBIGDriverChecker to update the driver, and then restarted. That is when the real problems started. I could no longer connect to the camera. When I plug the camera in, I here it make the usual usb connection noise, and device manager shows "SBIG Camera with firmware" and no issues. No matter which software I use, like nebulosity, APT or CCDOPS, they all state no camera present. I am hoping that the camera hasn't died. The only update to the driver was the SBIGUDRV.dll file which is now 4.96 build 3 dated 10-10-16. I can't roll back the driver to the previous version, so can't test to see if that is the issue.
Just hoping that someone can help me, or has had connectivity issues with SBIG cameras.
Thanks
Andrew...
