so the scope works as a starting point. try taking a pic of the moon with the cam and let us know what you get. If you can't get the moon, try a distant daylight scene. Make sure that it comes to focus
Jupiter should be about 50 pixels across if my mental calc is right. If you are only getting 9 pixels, is there any possibility that you could have been looking at a nearby star? The field of view of the camera is waaay smaller than that of the DSLR and it can be quite hard to find objects with such a narrow field of view.
what software controls do you have for exposure time? Total guess, but would expect to be able to see Jupiter at exposures of somewhere around 100ms.
