Is this a screenshot from ASICap?
If it is, your image is over-exsposed, you need to lower the gain and exposure.

I have an ASI533 and when I go into video mode in the ASIAir app there is a slider on the screen that adjusts the exposure time. If that also shows up with your 224 on Studio, decrease the exposure until you see the bands appears. You can also decrease the gain, but I find the exposure setting the easiest to use because it is dynamic.
