ASI533 would have been better size for AIR version.

Not for me… I have a 2600 MC Pro, together with a ASIair Plus. This is mounted on my ASKAR 103. The 585 would perfectly match my little RedCat 51 as a 2nd complete Rig…

Anyone knows how to setup ASI585MC Air directly to PC via wifi? I can connect it to wifi but the programs like ASI Studio, NINA, etc. won't detect it. I have the ASCOM and ZWO Camera drivers installed. Mobile connection works fine.

ybahiyiT Looking at the manual for the ASI585MC AIR here - https://i.zwoastro.com/wp-content/uploads/2025/05/4823be3cbf3d4074558bda927ebbd258.pdf - you need to read from part 8. Astrophotography with ASIStudio

Also note this particular tip from a user over at Cloudy Nights: https://www.cloudynights.com/topic/940306-zwo-asi2600-air-and-ascomalpaca-issues/?p=13739635

ybahiyiT Hi，Could you tell me your ASCOM verison?

I have the same problem. Running ASCOM 7.02. I can connect fine to the 585AIR with the ASIImg app but NINA doesn't see it. I believe I should see the Alpaca drivers in the dropdown correct? NINA install is the latest also

j16n7X1i Our driver has added support for the ASI585 camera. You will replace the driver file in NINA with our driver file. First find the ASIStudio software, right-click the mouse to find the file location, and then search for: ASICamera2.dll. After finding the file, copy it to the NINA file directory and replace it.

Also update the ASCOM driver to ensure it is up to date. This is the download link: https://www.zwoastro.com/software/. The image above shows the path to the NINA file (first find your installation directory and then search for the file path): \N.I.N.A. - Nighttime Imaging 'N' Astronomy\External\x64\ASI

Thank you. That worked, I can now see and connect to both cameras in the ASI585Air under the "Alpaca" section of the drivers. I still can't see the cameras in PHD2 drop down when I connect there however. That's a problem for another day. I tried the same DLL swap with PHD2 and that broke PHD2.

You need first choose the ASI Camera(ASCOM)Driver and then choose your camera,that's all ok

You can connect to the ASIAir via Wi-Fi, then link the ASIAir to your camera, and control it using your phone. The image I posted earlier was taken using PHD2 connected to the camera.
The reason you couldn’t start the camera is that you incorrectly replaced the DLL file. You’ll need to download and install a fresh copy of PHD2 to restore functionality. Additionally, PHD2 currently only supports ASCOM drivers, and the ASI ASCOM driver on your computer is an outdated version—you’ll need to update it to the latest one.
