ZWO ASI462MC [ERROR] Error connecting to the CCD (16) [Fixed with New ASI SDK]

Why are you running it from there? Create equipment profile in Ekos and select ASI CCD as your camera and that's it. The Devices --> Device Manager is used WITHOUT Ekos.

I found the way it handled equipment very non-intuitive. It worked connecting the mount that way and so it seemed logical for the camera to work the same way. I was starting just by using Kstars to control the mount and was then using Firecapture for imaging but wanted to hook up the camera to kstars as well so that I could evaluate moving off Firecapture (more likely for DSO work).

I'll head off to RTFM and see if that helps ;-)

I just pushed an updated INDI ASI driver in GIT. If you can compile that, please install libopencv-dev first and then run cmake.

This would build the asi_camera_test binary that uses the SDK to communicate with the camera. This is independent of INDI. It's using the demo file from ZWO but this file can probably best improved to remove opencv dependency so that it's available for all

Found this on the ZWO website about the new SDK released on 6/19

astronomy-imaging-camera.com/software/ch...ange_ASISDK_Unix.txt

V 1.15.0617 2020.6.17
Fix some bugs
Add new camera ASI462MC

I imagine this is may be the problem. Sorry I can't yet build indi from source to try the idea above.
