Croz Thank you for helping to answer DeepD's question.
ASCOM was released earlier than new Mount firmware, because ASCOM needed to add support for new cameras. The new Mount firmware will be released around May 6th.
Thank you for your attention
Thankyou for the ASCOM update as I just upgraded to the 220 mini (more sensitive) and I now can image - Fixed the bug of 220MINI get image failed in ASCOM
However, running this morning I now find that guiding via the ASCOM connection using MaximDL is not working also. I get the message thru MaximDL as follows -
"asi 220 could not initialize guider output please check guider settings"

I have installed this and it works great except for one thing. Like the previous versions, it insists on being 'always on top' of other windows rather than behave like a normal window. Can this be fixed?

I have been waiting for ZWO to change this for more than 8 months now...
Look at my post from October, 30, 2022:

Point 3 ("Window handling").
It's only some lines of code to make a little checkbox in the corner of the window giving the option to choose the window behavior.
Looks like they do not understand some very simple things...
Ascom SE550 : 70 MHz / 4m
click for larger version (4x as big)A 25W ex-PMR "low band" radio, converted for use on 70MHz by the Rugby Amateur Transmitting Society ( www.rugby-ats.co.uk ), with firmware by PA4DEN (RATS v3). Measures 170 W x 55 H x 175 D (mm), or 6.7 x 2.17 x 6.9 inches.No speaker built in, which seems slightly clumsy to anyone used to normal amateur radios, but it's not a great problem. A bulky plug assembly at the rear left features power and speaker connections (amongst others). On the right (rear) is the BNC antenna socket. The front Mic socket is an odd one, but it's no problem getting spares or cutting down a standard PC connector. A light sensor controls the appropriate brightness of the display, and the buttons are all illuminated to help you in the dark. Approximate current consumption is 50mA when 'off' (standby), 0.5Aon squelched RX, up to 1A with received audio, and up to 6 or 7A on TX. First IF is 21.4MHz, with either 20.945or 21.855 (switchable in menu) providing the final 455kHz.Handy linksManual and misc goodies : www.g0beq.fsnet.co.uk/ascom/ascom.htm

Note - CTCSS label should actually be : ZVEI multi-tonesLevel 1 : Getting StartedAt first you'll just want to tune to a certain frequency, make sure the volume is reasonable, and talk. Theadvanced stuff can wait for now.Switch on with a quick press of the power button, and wait a moment for it to spring into life.Don't expectto press the button until it switches on - a long press will get it to flash on briefly and then it will tell you it's switched off! This can be veryconfusing, especially when you try again and nothing happens. If you're having trouble, wait two or three seconds for it to settle downand then try again.The volume willprobably be too loud, so go down to nothing and then up one - grin and bear it or fit a variable resistor volumecontrol of your own!Tune in with the MHz or kHz buttons shown above to tune up and down, or just dialin a frequency such as 7 0 4 5 (no decimal point needed) - it will auto-complete for you, based upon 12.5kHz steps. You maydial in frequencies from 60.0 to 99.9875 MHz, and the up/down tuning will 'roll around' these limits. VFO lock and RX performance may vary considerably away from 4m, but my local FM station on 88.8 came in loud and clear during pauses in speech (their broadcast deviation is way too high for this narrow FM RX of course). 89.6 was ok too, but there was less success with other local frequencies (on the same mast) over 90 MHz. Dummy load tests confirmed that TX is possible outside of the amateur 4m band, so be careful with the repeater shift (which is set to 1.6MHz as supplied).However scary it may have looked at first, that's the basics and it's simple enough isn't it? If you get lost in menus just switch it off and on again. I bought mine and didn't exactly rush to power it up, because it was "oh no, not another complicated user interface to learn, look at all those buttons" - but it was much easier than I was expecting. But still tricky enough in places for me to write this for anyone else getting muddled...Level 2 : Changing Some SettingsMost useful functionsoPress followed by [1] for Transmit Power. Use to change between 0, 1, 2, or 3 bars on the display, then any other numerical key to get back to VFO mode. Highest power --- will be around 25W (14dBW), -- is about half, - may be about 2.5W and no bars just a bit less than that.oPress followed by [2] for Squelch Level - althoughthis may be best left alone (see manual). No Bars is for maximum sensitivity, - means the squelch level is increased by about 5dB, -- reduces Rx sensitivity by about 20dB, and --- is even worse.oPress followed by [4] for the MENU (see below).oPress followed by [8] for Frequency Steps (raster) - select 5/6.25/10/12.5/15/18.75/20/25 kHz with , 10kHz to get to 70.260 for example, but 12.5 will suffice for most of us.oPress followed by [#] to switch to the next Repeater Shift mode. Each time these two buttons are pressed it will change the displayed shift to the next of the three possibilities of -, +, or none.Other possibilities : [3] for choosing CTCSS tones (if possible for your specific radio), [5] for Status menu, [6] to show or hide the name of a memory channel where it has been set, ([7] not known), ([9] not known), [0] arrange sending a ZVEI tone call to one of 10 codes, [*] memory channel scan lock-out, [top right key] for choosing send tone code (receive not implemented), [Call channel key] to set or delete call channel, [S] toset or delete a memory channel.The MENU. There aren't enough front panel buttons to give every function its own button, so settings which are not changed very often are placed in a MENU (with several submenus to organise things better). The (as left/right) and buttons are used most, for selecting items and changing them. 152ee80cbc
