ASIAIR Pro exposure failure using ZWO ASI120MM mini (solved - partial)

When using 120MM mini as my main camera I get exposure failure errors. Occurs randomly (sometimes many times in a row). On average about every 2nd exposure. Affects all functions in ASIAIR Pro – Preview, PA, focus, live, autorun, plate solve and goto.

Solution – take first preview exposure at 0.001 seconds. You can then select other exposure lengths without encountering exposure failure. ZWO are aware of the problem and hopefully will fix in future update for ASIAIR Pro software.

Credit to Sylvain at ProAstroz who has helped me isolate the problem.

So far ASIAIR Pro seems to be a great piece of kit. Doesn’t offer the same sophistication as laptop software, but is easy to set up, includes essential functions, mounts on telescope and operates via wifi minimising cables. Really good for polar alignment.
