    I need assistance with getting my Seeing Monitor up and running.
    SM-2 was in a box for a while. Now, getting hooked up.
    This is a New Install, SM-2 seeing monitor on a new PC.
    CPU = windows Pro-11, version 23H2, fully updated.
    Monitor program = SBIG/New Astronomy Press Seeing Monitor
    Camera = QHY 5L-II-M
    EZCAP 64 finds the camera, however, Seeing Monitor does not.
    Driver by QHY All in One - check box for QHY 5L-II
    Device Driver = camera shows as "AstroImaging Equipment QHY5II"
    Remarks in device driver details = Device Settings not migrated
    The camera is recognized by EZCAP but not the Seeing Monitor, and the remarks in Device Manager looks like the driver may have a problem.
    Any ideas??
    Thanks

    Contact the manufacturer of that Seeing Monitor.
    It was made by a company with a similar name by an ex-employee.

    Nothing to do with us.
