Pegasusastro focus cube / Sharp Cap / failure step size setting

Hi,

there is is a failure in the new Ascom driver (version 2.19) for FocusCube v2 Universal in conjunction with sharp cap pro (version 4.0.8495.0):

When you start sharpcap, connect to the camera, go to the Pegasus Astro Focuse Controller windows within sharpcap nothing happens if you change anything there:
    New value in the field postion, pressing return -> nothing happens.
      The fields StepSize coarse and fine are set to value zero -> you cannot change the value. Everytime you change it is set back to zero.
        Whatever you do in this window -> the focus conroller do nothing

        Workaround:
        If you uncheck the button "connect" in the sharpcap focus controller window and check the button again (so this is something like a reconnect to the device), you alter the values in all fields and the focus controller is moving. Have a look at the attached screenshots.

        Everytime you restart sharpcap, there is the same situation as I described above.

        With Ascom driver version 2.17 I had no problems with that.

        Best rgards

        Seems that we fixed one bug and created another one with Sharpcap.
        We'll have a look and provide a fix
