Problem with ST-8300C

Hello,
My camera ST-8300C is not working properly.
It began to be reported in the system as the ST-402.
It is not a question of drivers. It was working properly and suddenly stopped without any changes in the system and drivers. I checked camera on 3 different computers and everywhere is the same.
I also have ST-8300M, which on the same machine is working properly.
I have message from Bill Lynch, that It seems to have gotten its EEprom information corrupted and I probably can restore it in CCDOps.
Please tell me How?

 

Go to our FAQ and read "How to configure your SBIG CCD camera with CCDOps".

Thank You for help.

 

Bill,
It is here on DL's forum, just go to the home page.

Hello,
I have done according to the instructions contained in the forum.
My question is. when I used the Default Values for CCD Gain / Offset, I got offset 20.
Previously, I had a 160.
Is it ok?
If I want to use the option to set the offset I have error.

 

I just checked the ST-8300C and my shows offset number 154. I can also confirm, that the default value is set to 20.
I followed the same test which calculates the offset number, but got the same error you have mentioned above. Then,
I did the same tests with the STF-8300 and all passed all right. So, we have to check why this offset calculation
is not permitted for this type of camera. There may be some bug either inside the CCDOPS and/or driver, so
please wait until this is fixed.

OK, Thanks Jan, I'm waiting for Information on removing bug or instructions for shortcuts, how I set properly offset

 

Are there any forecast when this failure is removed in CCDOPS?

 

I repeat the question: when this error will be removed from CCDOPS?
Someone from SBIG could answer?

 

Is this something that would revive my ST8300c?

 

This is a document that I got, but the current version CCDOPS contains an error when setting the offset (see posts above)
