Hello,
I just received my 174mm mini to go with my Askar M54 OAG, Celestron C9.25xlt (@f/6.3) and asi533mm.
I tested my setup during daytime and was able to achieve focus on both cameras and full screen images. However, during nighttime I don’t see any stars on the asiair+ guide screen. All is focussed, standard gain for the 174mm is M (176 or so). I does guide on a single star, but it is not visible to me on the screen. I have tried lowering or raising the gain, switching 2x2 binning on/off, changing exposure/guide time. Also the guide screen is almost black and very grainy (if like I use gain 1000).
What am I missing?

P.S. I couldn’t attach a screenshot. It wouldn’t let me upload it and after the refresh my message was gone (this is the 2nd try).
