How do you change the names of filters in Sky X for the filter wheel?

Somehow my filter wheel when connected in the Sky X is showing the wrong names for the filters. How do I change it?

Filter wheel is under the autoguider tab. That is odd. Do I have the wrong filter wheel location?

Greg.

Mine appears in the camera tab. Click the gear button next to the camera name and the filter wheel should be identified in the hardware list. Selecting that should give you the option to change names.
camera needs to be connected for the changes to be made.

A filter wheel can be setup for the guider in the profile. Perhaps changing the actual profile?

I fixed it tonight. What you said here was what was the problem. I had the filter wheel connected in the autoguider tab not under the camera. I saw that it gave an error message when I connected the camera. I got it to connect and I was able to set the correct filter names.

Thanks for your help.

Greg.
