FocusCube cannot connect, Error Accessing port, Access denied
Posted: Sat Feb 17, 2024 8:02 pm
Hi,
I am using the same setup since quite some time: laptop, Pegasus Pocket power box Advanced, Focuscube 2.
Tonight, when I wanted to start imaging, SGP could not connect to the Focuscube. I have tried with other softwares like NINA and Sharpcap, and they gave more information:
Error accessing port, access denied
The focuser DOES work when I start the pegasus focuser app (not Unity, the former app), and I can control it from there on COM4. It also works with the hand controller fwiw.
I made sure the app is closed to free the port, but that obviously did not help.
Rebooted the pc, did not help.
Upgraded the ASCOM framework to 6.6 (last version), did not help.
I am running out of options. It drives me nuts why I get this problem now. Laptop is running Windows 10, latest updates.
Thanks for any help.
