Two cameras (Main & Guide) in Astroart 8

[centroid]

Are there any Astrort 8 (or 7) users here that might have an answer to this problem.

I have a Hypercam 294C Pro TEC, and a GPCAM 130. I can connect either of them as a main camera, so the software both recognises, and communicates with them.

The option to connect a second camera (guide) doesn't become available until the main camera is connected.

I have downloaded, from the Astroart website, the two relevant dll's, d_ASCOM-dll, and g_ASCOM_dll and installed them in the Astroart folder (Programs x86)

When I try to connect to the 130 (Camera 2, Guide) , the program 'Flags Up' "Unable to connect camera".

I have to wonder if the problem might be that the GPCAM 130 does not have its own dedicated USB feed, but is 'Piggy Backed' off the 294C.

I have posted the question on the Astroart user forum, but as yet, no solution

 Yes, I know I could use the ‘freebie’ sofware, but having bought Astroart 2, I would like to use it. It is designed to run both a main and guide cameras together. Back in the day, pre 2014, I used AA5 with an SX main camera, and an SX Lodestar guide camera, without any problems, albeit they did each have their own  USB feed, and neither of them were ASCOM.

Problems now resolved. Excellent support from Fabio Cavicchio of MSB software. 👍
