Lodestar X2 and Prism 10 Message

[beercia]

After installing the signed latest Starlight Express Lodestar X2 drivers for Win 7 from their website and trying to run Prism 10 using the Lodestar for guiding Prism 10 does not connect to the guider and gives me a message like this:

"ASCOM guider has not been setup properly"

Everything else is working properly except the guider. The guider did work on my previous Prism version but now it refuses to cooperate. I see no option for the Lodestar X2 guider on the Prism hardware options except ASCOM or AO Starlight Xpress Hardware. I selected ASCOM but it didn't work. When I choose "None" the problem ends but no guider is available as expected.

What is going on? Is there a fix for this problem? I have Win 7.

Hello Carlos

How did you do so far?

[beercia]

Stand by on that Hamza. I have been having other issues with Win7 and my mount (runaways) and haven’t had a chance to look into Prism. I will after I solve the Win7 issues.

On the camera settings above, you have Use camera embedded guiding relay port checked. Is that only checked if using a cable from lodestar to mount? I'm not using the cable, so I leave this unchecked?
