FCUSB Software download issue

[stev74]

Hi All,

I've recently bought a FCUSB to control my Skywatcher Auto Focuser through my laptop but when I tired to download the FocusPal software it wont work all I get is this message (see attachment 2).

I also downloaded the FCUSB driver and get this message (see attachment 1).

I have an HP nx6125 laptop running XP professional (2002, service pack 3).

I have downloaded FocusPal to my desktop running Vista and connected the FCUSB with the Auto Focuser and the software runs fine, it controls the Auto Focuser with no issues. Obviously I cant take the desktop out in the field for imaging but at least I know there is no issue with the FCUSB hardware.

Any help with getting the software running on my laptop would be most appreciated thanks.

Steve

This should help with the FocusPal issue:

For the driver issue, this is the ASCOM driver for the FCUSB. If you want to use it with ASCOM compliant third-party software, then you will first need to download and install the ASCOM platform from www.ascom-standards.org, then download and install our ASCOM driver.
