QHY Cams crashing UPB V2.

Post by Astrostuart2691 »

One of the frustrations with this hobby is as you try to solve issues and improve your setup / rig you inevitably dig another deeper hole to try and climb out.....

I have the Power box advance V2 and frustratingly every session seems to crash, So after setting up on the kitchen table I have traced it back to the guiding (PHD2) and in particular the QHY5M guide cam, when ever the guide cam or the Polemaster cam for that matter is used via the powerbox, the box shuts down. It initially connects but after a few moments the power box drops out and needs restarted. Is there a solution to this? I've wiped off the QHY software and reinstalled to no avail. Has anyone experienced similar issues and found a solution?

QHY5M is in USB3 and the Polemaster USB5

TIA :D
