Thanks for the advice/ info. Backing up the pi is definitely necessary if ones got it full working or customization. My case is like debugging the QHY connections on a fresh astorberry (with just the polemaster installed manually) using the try and error approach, I don't mind to reinstall it entirely as it takes me no effort.

Possible, seems Jasem did updated the 4 qhy related files, not sure what they do, but I'd like to try reinstall it. Now I need to get my commands work. https://launchpad.net/~mutlaqja/+archive/ubuntu/ppa/+index?batch=75&memo=150&start=150 indi-qhy 2.6~202004201859~ubuntu18.04.1 Jasem Mutlaq (2020-04-20) indi-qhy 2.6~202004201859~ubuntu16.04.1 Jasem Mutlaq (2020-04-20) indi-qhy 2.6~202004201858~ubuntu20.04.1 Jasem Mutlaq (2020-04-20) indi-qhy 2.6~202004201857~ubuntu19.10.1 Jasem Mutlaq (2020-04-20)

I reinstalled the entire astroberry 2 days ago I assume it comes with the latest INDI version. One stupid question, how can I check the INDI version? I have also followed the following link to reinstall Kstars and INDI, but I'm not sure the reinstallation really works since after each commands it seems nothing really happened, I can still open up Kstar / INDI after the 2 purges, any ideas? https://baheyeldin.com/astronomy/installing-latest-kstars-ekos-and-indi-library-ubuntu-1604.html sudo aptitude purge indi-bin libindi-data libindi1 libindidriver1sudo aptitude purge kstars kstars-data sudo apt-add-repository ppa:mutlaqja/ppasudo aptitude update sudo aptitude install indi-full kstars-bleeding

I have a few problems of my pi running the Astroberry server. I'm now breaking down the mess and trying to resolve it one by one. Here is one that can be easily described and I'm more confident it can be resolved. I use the packaged Ekos/ INDI sever. I connect the QHY5L-ii-m as guide camera directly to the pi USB 2.0 port (so avoiding the potential known issue on the USB3.0 / 2.4G wifi interference problem), Ekos/ INDI and PHD2 can connect to it, however it can't get any frames. The little red LED light of the cam blinks, does it mean it is capturing frames? Re the attached screen dump, I've also included the demsg, is there anyone experienced the same? How did you resolve it? Cheers.
