Hello, My team operates a robotic system (PW CDK14) remotely in Chile using ACP scheduler. After repairing the STX16803 CCD (https://forum.diffractionlimited.com/threads/stx16803-cooling-issue.6989/#post-41260), staff in the observatory reinstalled it with FW7. SBIG STX16803 and FW7 were recognized in TSX but not in Maxim DL 6.16 saying the error message below. """ Error opening filter wheel Error (1867151712) initializing filter wheel. """ + Attached image This worked before repairing but we wonder the reason and resolve this. Let me know if you need more information. Best regards, Gu Lim
Ok, thank you. MaxIm DL 6.14 throug 6.17 have a bug related to SBIG filter wheels. You can either upgrade to 6.27 or you can go back to SBIG Driver Checker with sbigudrv.dll 4.99 In MaxIm, Help... Check for Updates will take you to a page with info on the last version you are entitled to, and we recommend you update, as that version is quite old. See the bottom of this messsage for a link to the older SBIG driver: https://forum.diffractionlimited.com/threads/sbig-driver-update-for-new-afw-and-dual-wheels.8321/ See the bottom of this message for installaton advice: https://forum.diffractionlimited.com/threads/sbigudrv-dll-has-broken-our-fw7-in-maxim-d-6-14.8375/
I updated Maxim DL 6.16 to 6.26 as your answer. The filter wheel connection was successful. Thank you for your help!
