QSI540wsg
Hi, I just took the dust off of one of my QSI540wsg in order to use it with my Mewlon 250. How do I reset the camera to factory default? When connecting the camera via ASCOM to NINA it looks like the

Re: QSI 700 series cameras in stock and available now.
Hello Nycturne, Thank you for the feedback, we have discussed this with our software team and we will prevent this from happening in the future. As you say both camera share parts of the existing code

Re: QSI 700 series cameras in stock and available now.
Looks like when NINA grabbed an updated Atik SDK (2024.07.12.1888) with 3.1 HF2, it made the QSI760 show up as a native Atik camera in NINA. As a warning, this version of the SDK has two issues: 1) It

Best way to contact support?
Hi, I am having issues with my QSI6162, looks like the FW motor is faulty. I've been trying to contact QSI support using the support form on the site but I am not sure if my messages are going

Re: Bizzar failure to connect QDI 632
Hi Bruce. I see that you asked the same question on the Diffraction Limited support forum on 5th August and it was mentioned that QSI had just released a new 64bit driver package, including an updated

Bizzar failure to connect QDI 632
Since deploying this new (used) QSI 632camera a problem has emerged with the connection upon startup. It is a real puzzle that will require someone who understands this camera better than I to figure

Re: Purging a QSI
Argon has a 33% lower thermal conductivity than air, at 18 W/K (also described as 0.018 W/(mK)). Krypton is even lower at 0.009 W/(mK) ¨C half the conductivity of argon ¨C but is more expensive.

Re: Purging a QSI
Regarding argon: As Peter points out, there¡¯s an increase in cooling efficiency with the argon but it isn¡¯t enormous. There¡¯s another advantage, though. I had a first generation QSI camera that

Re: Purging a QSI
Actually in Europe it¡¯s not cheaper (let alone much cheaper). Wine preserving cylinders runs at 20-30€ and the ones I¡¯ve seen say they¡¯re an unspecified mix of Ar, CO2 and N2. Of course

Re: Purging a QSI
OK, yes of course using Argon is a desirable way of maintaining the cameras at peak cooling efficiency. But it isn't essential by any means, certainly imho not worth expensive measures unless perhaps

Re: Purging a QSI
Argon is heavier than air, about 38% heavier. One should be able to slowly fill a container such as a small aquarium with argon, submerge the camera in the argon, open the imaging chamber and then re

Re: Purging a QSI
Much, much cheaper and easier it use as it comes with a hand rubber straw, is a 100% ARGON Wine Preserver. I use Winesave PRO and it will probably last me a lifetime as wine rarely lasts long enough
