INDICCDFrame: Does not recognize Filter Wheel #32

Open rockstarbill opened 7 years ago

rockstarbill commented 7 years ago

Hello,

I have INDI running on a Raspberry Pi 3, with a ZWO filter wheel connected to it. This wheel works fine in KStars/Ekos, however PixInsight's CCD Frame module is not able to use any of the filters in it. The filter box is just greyed out, although the wheel is connected fine in INDIDeviceController.

Hi, support for external filter wheels in the PixInsight INDI CCD Frame module will be available in the next update of that module.

Best regards, Klaus

With the new version PI 1.8.5, the INDI CCD Frame module supports external filter wheels as well. After connecting to an external wheel (like the ZWO filter wheel), you will be able to select the filter wheel device name in the new "External filter wheel device" combo box in the "Frame Acquisition" section of the module.
