Can connect AS1120MM but not AS1120MC

baggywrinkle

if I use the MM I get a connection and everything works, but when I try the MC I get an error message 'Error during preview 0x80040209' and the camera does not work.

Why is this happening.

Sam@ZWO

it means the camera's driver is not installed properly

you need to check device manager if the camera is listed there or not

have a look at here

I had bought this camera 2nd hand, so it was an older version. The new version software downloaded from the website for the MC version (not MC-S) does not work. Lucky I had the mini CD-ROM which had the old version on it. Now working.

Really and software updates should work with all versions of the AS1120MC.
