Altair AA26C Offset keeps resetting

Hi. Don’t know if anyone has this problem.
I set the Altair 26C cooled camera (AA26C indi_altair_ccd driver) for Gain 100 and Offset 100 High Gain mode.
If I have to reconnect EKOS (eg cable issue and check plugs) and restart it quite often gets reset back to offset 0 no matter how many times I go to Options Save
in indi control panel. All the other settings seem to stay as I previously set.
I use indi server client mode with EKOS client on local workstation and indi server on mini arm board in case that is issue.
Kstars v 3.7.2 stable.

Hi,
you can see this thread: https://indilib.org/forum/ccds-dslrs/14894-omegon-pro-571c-properties-not-loaded.html

All ToupTek based cameras do not save things like offset, conversion gain and a few others. for me its conversion gain, that always switches to high instead of low…

Regards

Thanks Dirk. It’s a bummer. I made some Bias frames and wondered why there was a funny band top and bottom and then realised the settings had changed. I try to check every time before using but it is easy to forget and assume it was picked up from last time. Maybe I will put a not on my screen or tie a knot somewhere…
