Cannot connect focuser under SGP
Posted: Sat Mar 13, 2021 2:01 pm
I have the focuser and controller hooked up to each other and to my laptop and the following installed:
ASCOM Pegasus Astro Focus Driver
Pegasus-UPB-Focuser-Setup
Cable connections:
RJ45 connecting focuser to controller.
USB B to A (2.0) connecting controller to laptop.
controller shows the green light
In SGP I select the Pegasus focuser and try to connect. It won’t connect and actually locks up SGP. The message says “error connecting to ASCOM UPB Pegasus”
Actually the problem is upstream of that. When I plug the controller into the laptop I get “(the USB device) malfunctioned and Windows does not recognize it.” It’s unclear which device it’s not recognizing since they’re connected in series. Any thoughts appreciated.
