ASIAIR v2.2.1 has been released!

85HvOvTJ use the beta. V2.2.1 is buggy.

Nolomar

Prismokay Something's going on, my ASIAIR is broken since an update attempt. We're not the only ones, something's going on....

Prismokay

Nolomar I'm in contact with ZWO support. I believe this is firmware related. What is your ASIair model?

ASIAIR PLUS 32Gb.
ZWO technical support connected to my ASIAIR remotely to try to fix the problem. A few hours later, they simply sent me an email saying that the repair had not been possible and that ‘best regards’...

I explained to them that it all started when I tried to upgrade to 2.2.0, until then I had never had any problem.
The equipment was purchased in June 2022, warranty out of time for two miserable months, but they didn't care...

I sincerely believe that they have done something wrong, if you look at the 2.2.0 has disappeared from the ZWO website, even from the list of older firmwares ... ZWO deleting by cleaning the scene of the crime?
Very, very strange....

Newbie here 🙂 i have an am3 and a sony a7iii i'm planning to get the asiair mini is it compatible with a7iii? Thanks all

Corsair

Ramabraham according the product page for the ASIAIR Mini it looks like the A7III is supported (scroll down the page to get to the list).

Just make sure you set it up correctly following this guide
https://www.yuque.com/zwopkb/asiair/lf7nd44fruq3vukh

Additionally, if you experience problems on version 2.2.1 of the app/firmware (the version of the App on your device needs to match the version of the firmware on the ASIAIR), then it is advised to either:

Install the beta 2.2.2 app/firmware. See here: https://bbs.zwoastro.com/d/18983-asiair-v222-public-beta-released; or
If you're on Android then downgrade to a previous version. See here: https://bbs.zwoastro.com/d/18885-how-to-downgraderollback-asiair-app-firmware-with-android

Either way, make sure you go to the appropriate app on your device (Play Store for Android OR App Store for iOS/iPadOS) and turn off auto update of the ASIAIR App.

Corsair Thank you buddy, i ordered the asiair mini do you think i need a snap cable? I think i have one for my shutter release thay i can use

wvreeven

Nolomar That really sucks! Shame on ZWO for messing up badly!!!

Corsair

Ramabraham By snap cable I'm assuming you mean shutter release cable? If so - I think you do need it (not 100% sure, though).

Hello, I had something on my mind for a long time. I wanted to write about it this morning when I experienced it again. I went out to the field to shoot Comet C/2023 A3 Tsuchinshan-ATLAS. I started my preparations to shoot automatically. I was thinking of taking 50-60 frames with 30-second exposures. When I said start, it started the autofocus feature, which is a very useful feature, and of course, it was not successful because it was very close to daylight. The result was disappointing. I have two things I want from you. To be able to turn off the autofocus feature when it is close to the horizon and sunrise and to return to the first autofocus setting. I know that software work is very difficult. But I am sure it will be useful for many astrophotographers. I could not pay attention to the new version because of time constraints. But if this feature has come, I apologize for my request if I have not seen it.

I have officially tried everything to ressurect my 256GB. This is completely firmware related. I wish I had the ability to wipe the ASIair system so that I could get a fresh-start on 2.2.2, but I don't have that option.

Nolomar

Prismokay
I am convinced of this.
There are several customers who have had their ASIAIR semi-blocked after an update.
The most painful thing is to see how ZWO, a brand I had always trusted, washes its hands. But it will have consequences. To start with, I have already called my supplier to cancel the AM5 I had ordered. I think I will finally get the Wave 150i. I will gradually disassociate myself from ZWO.
I don't want to have to be praying every time you update to have more objects in skymaps for example...

Prismokay make sure to submit a support ticket. Might need to RMA the unit.

Prismokay

Corsair Already have, sending it in tomorrow.

Nolomar

I already opened a support ticket a few weeks ago.
They remotely connected to my AA+ and just said they couldn't do anything.
I rather think that they were not willing to do what needed to be done (flash the unit) in case someone hunted them for the image file.
