Another Atik 460 cooling question

[kirkster501]

Hi all,

Noticed that my Atik is struggling to get down to temperature.  I only requiresit to get down from ambient of about 5C (these cooler nights) to -5 and I have no end of trouble with it keep timing out and being unable to get to -5C.  This cannot be right surely?  I am only asking it to get 10 degrees down from ambient.  This problem seems to have gotten progressively worse of late.

How long does your Atik take to get down to -5C?

Any thoughts about what i can try?

I am using APT.  I might try using Artemis and see if that can cool it better.

Ignore.  With Artemis CCD I can get it to -20c just fine (assuming it is reporting properly!).  This is must be a bug in APT.  I will report it to Ivo.
