I sometimes have this happen with my FLI cameras which have a slower download but lower read noise setting and another setting which is faster downloads (good for focusing) but higher read noise. I set to the faster downloads for focusing and then forget to set it back to the slower downloads but lower read noise for the actual imaging.
You can't calibrate the fast downloads with the slower downloads calibration files.
In my experience with ZWO's driver, it remembers the last used settings, so it's very much set it and forget it. If you never go into the Advanced settings in the ASCOM driver, gain/offset/USB speed will not change.

It's pretty fool-proof...I've managed to get by with it for years
