#APCC #appc #pointmapper Camera cannot connect in APCC Pro Point Mapper (v1.9.4.3) via NINA #APCC #appc

Hi,
I would like to control my SBIG STF-8300M via NINA in APCC Pro Point Mapper (v1.9.4.3).

In Nina 2.0 (HF1) I get the following error message (Logfile), although the camera is connected and the Astro-Physics-Tool Plugin is installed!

What else do I have to configure in Nina?

I have also tried with CCD Soft and AstroArt, get there also error messages, but different.

Here is the APPM Logfile:

I found the error after all. A setting in Windows, in my user has been missing.
I have set the following via Powershell:
PS C:\WINDOWS\system32> netsh http add urlacl url=http://+:59590/ user=Domain\user
or
PS C:\WINDOWS\system32> netsh http add urlacl url=http://+:59590/ user=hostname\user
is also possible.

Source: https://stackoverflow.com/questions/8727293/http-could-not-register-url-http-8000-hellowcf-your-process-does-not-have

Then the switch "Server enable" in N.I.N.A under General Setting to "on".

Check in Powershell if the port is now listen:
PS C:\WINDOWS\system32> netstat -nab | findstr "59590" 
TCP 0.0.0.0:59590 0.0.0.0:0 TRACE  DEPEND
TCP [::]:59590 [::]:0

Hi G19
I have the exact same issue that you described but with my QHY600 camera, but I am not familiar w/ Windows system and I am not sure where to find the exact host/user parameter because I get a parameter error when I try your nets command ?
(Ive enter  C://Users/PrimaLuceLab that is my user)
Would you advise me what to do ?

Thanks a lot
Philippe
