  • Image captured cannot save to disk in the ASCOM driver

I am using an ASI6200MM and SGP, and often encounter an error during image capturing.

The driver being used are:

  • ZWO_ASI_Camera_driver_Setup_V3.24
  • ZWO_ASCOM_Setup_V6.5.25

The following error is found in the SGP log, marked in BOLD.

Could the support look into this suspected issue in the ASCOM driver?

    Subaru Could you test the camera in NINA via ASCOM as well? does the problem appear? thanks.

    Thank you for your reply.

    I will try to install NINA in the remote setup, and test again.
