Ok one problem sorted. I uninstalled the driver and then reinstalled this. What I did not know was that the ASCom platform and .net network software has to be installed before the driver. By uninstalling and reinstalling I sorted the problem of connection. I went down to the observatory today and opened focusmax and closed it twice and each time the focusor and was connected and the camera was automatically connected.
I will need to do a bit more analysis on the power/USB drop outs on the camera. I checked and the power supply is a 10amp system. I had thought it was 5 amp but that is not the case. Once I get it sorted I will report back, if anyone has an idea please feel free to comment.
