You'll possibly have to download ASCOM (now V6.2) and the associated ASCOM drivers. I know this will be the way with the QHY10, not sure about the Lodestar but likely so.

I don't think you can connect to a QHY camera without ASCOM, not unless a version of Nebulosity comes with the supporting driver natively.
