Hi guys,

Just thought if anyone needs this information to connect your QHY5 as a guider cam to a PHD on a Windows 7 64bit home.

Found this info from Stargazer lounge and tested awhile ago,
it works.

http://stargazerslounge.com/equipment-h ... ivers.html

However, the drivers MUST start with nothing and installed in the following sequence:

a. ASCOM Platform
b. QHY5 system Drivers
c. QHY5 ASCOM Driver
d. QHY5 ASCOM Driver Patch
e. PHD

Drivers and PHD programs can be found in the links:

http://ascom-standards.org/ - For Ascom flatform
http://qhyccd.com/download.html - For drivers and Ascom drivers
http://qhyccd.com/ccdbbs/index.php?topic=2834.0 - Ascom driver patch
http://www.stark-labs.com/phdguiding.html - PHD program

Took me a couple of night pulling hair situations to get this work.
Hope it will help anyone who needs this information.

Regards,
Elton (shirox)
