    Thank you for responding Colin, I did read that but the link seems to refer to new cameras, the stl is very old and doesn’t use ascom drivers from what I have found out so far.

    Frank, again, go back and re-read the NINA web page. It's not under ASCOM, they added support for SBIG Legacy cameras, using the SBIG Universal Driver.

    I just verified this is true with my STL-11000M and this is what I see:

    You should have that in your list.

    Confirming - The STL-11000M and filter wheel can attach to Nina (3.1) as a SBIG Legacy device.
    PHD2 also works with the STL-11Km.
    Both programs can distinguish between guider and imager CCDs

    Downloading the full size frame over USB-1 takes ~30 seconds.

    For me in Nina 3.1 beta005 there is no mention of SBIG:
    Is there any thing to add in order to see it?

    1. Is the camera attached and powered up? Check the Device Manager for an SBIG camera.
    2. Is the SBIG Driver Checker installed?
    3. Is the camera seen by the SBIG Driver Checker? eg go to the Firmware Tab, and Get Firmware Version from camera.
    4. If all of that is correct, you'll have to ask https://nighttime-imaging.eu/
    Maybe you are missing the 64-bit driver we provided for that.
