Summary0001781: Connected CCD shown with red light
DescriptionHi Patrick,

when I start the Indi server with my QHY5L-II ccd connected, all the lights go correctly green but, after a few seconds, the ccd light goes back to red, even though the ccd is correctly connected and working.
Is this behavior normal?

The QHY driver is one of those that change it's name when it detect and connect to the camera.
But as Indistarter check the for configured driver name, it not found it and mark as red.

To fix that:
- start the driver
- open the indi client
- look at the full qhy ccd name in the top tabs.
- stop the driver and right click on the Indistarter row for the qhy
- select Edit name and enter the full name show in previous step.

OK, I have an ATIK camera that do the same, so I can try to find a way to automatically detect and change the name the first time it connect.

This is fixed by revision 72 and now available in version 1.0.
https://sourceforge.net/p/indistarter/code/72/

If you have more than one camera that use the same driver, QHY or other manufacturer, you must process as follow the first time you create the configuration:
- connect only one camera to the computer
- add the driver in indistarter
- click Start in indistarter to get the modified name
- click Stop
- connect the second camera to the computer
- add the second driver instance
- click Start

Once every camera name include it's model/serial number and this is saved in the configuration you can start normally with all the camera connected.
