Hi,
last night I got some severe problems after NINA has finished the meridian flip. I have to disconnect the camera and connect it again. After that it works fine again... The NINA developers have closed the issue: "This was discussed in discord. Not a nina issue, but a zwo sdk issue that is most likely caused by usb problems."
I am using the built in NINA ZWO drivers V. 1,33,0,0. NINA version 3.0.0.9001
