StarGo and iPolar (iOptron) issue: "camera disconnected" was created by Peter_S
Hello again,
I encounter the follwing problem on different computers (a Lenovo ThinkPad and a MiniX mini PC, both W10 Pro):
Starting Ipolar App (newest version) exclusively is without issues, it even reads out coordinates from the mount (Avalon M Zero with StarGo connected via USB (StarGo App not yet started!)).
As soon as I start the StarGo App Ipolar disconnects: "camera disconnected"
- on both computers energy saving is deactivated.
- StarGO App uses COM port 3 ( no other option on Mini PC; on Lenovo Think Pad there is COM 8 possible - no difference in behavior)
- "use Bluetooth port" is deactivated (StarGo settings)
- the privacy settings concerning camera are set to "allow"
(iOptron support is also contacted)
Powered necessary?...Any suggestions?

Hello Peter
We made tests with a PC Win10 Pro, a Laptop Win10 Pro and a Lapbook Win10 Home and, after setting the camera privacy option to “allow”, everything worked fine.
It could be a power issue, so please try to connect the iPolar and the StarGo with a powered hub and let us know about it.
Also try to change connection cables and be sure to use good quality cables to connect the StarGo and iPolar.
Best regards.
