ZWO driver conflict with Eq6R in Ekos

[Wolfgang Reissenberger]

Meanwhile I have the impression that big sensors create too much strain onto our tiny little Raspberry Pi - even RPI 4. I switched to an Intel NUC and the problems disappeared.

With this Kstars version I am experiencing a conflict between the EQ6R driver with Equdir and the driver of the 385. It is impossible to take pictures with times lower than a second, while the 2600 has no problems. If I momentarily disconnect the EQ6, the 385 resumes shooting in any weather. I thank those who wanted to consider this small problem which, however, becomes great for planetary photos. Thank you and greetings
