Not sure if I had cooling on or not when I got the error message but I defintely had it on (only -8) when I lost an entire 1hr plus imaging session!

Same problem with my ZWO ASI071mc pro. I seem to havce lost an entire imaging session. Not sure whether it is the hub on the 071mc (guide cam and focuser attached via that) or the powered hub on the mount or a cable issue. I also have a powered hub in the shedobbsy. Either way it is a pain,. Someone suggested APT and PHD2 may be in conflict but both are reporting the correct cameras for the correct purposes. It would be helpful to know if there is actually a bug in the latest APT version before I start ripping out and replacing hubs and cables!

I have also had problems uploading firmware. I used my laptop to install and try the experimental EQ\AZ firmware. This worked but I found various alignment issues so I decided to revert to the original firmware. I got repeated can't connect to motor board power off and retry message. I was tearing my hair out when out of desperation I decided to try the process on my wife's laptop. Bingo, it worked. However, the red led on the mount no longer flashes! I have just tried to update to the latest firmware and had exactly the same problems using my laptop. Used the wife's and it ll worked smoothly. The LED still doesn't blink though. I am guessing there is a corrupt wifi connection on my laptop although the firmware loader shows the installed mc version - it just won't update it. Anyone got any ideas? And why has the led stopped blinking?????
