Usb extension cable
Posted: Mon Mar 01, 2021 4:50 pm
Hi
Last night I shoot some images with the asi1600mm pro, Orion star shoot guide camera and a usb dew band connected to the usb hub. To reach my imaging laptop I have connected a 3m usb 3 extension cable attached to the blue cable that came with the usb hub. Have the software for the hub and also the ASCOM drivers installed.
My question: is there any known issues running an extension between the hub and the laptop?
I experienced multiple times where images would not download. And SGP would park the scope.
Had to restart the camera every time to get it working again.
