Description Trevor Gainey 2022-01-30 11:31:56 UTC

SUMMARY
I was successfully using 3.5.6 on a RPi with a main scope and guide scope in a profile.
Yesterday I upgraded to 3.5.7 via the astroberry server and now when I connect to the same Ekos profile the Align module is all greyed out so I cannot use plate solving or polar align options.
If I disconnect from that profile and connect to another profile not using a guide scope, then the align module works as normal. So if I want to polar align and plate solve I need to connect to a non-guiding profile, polar align, plate solve then connect to the profile that includes the guide camera to take photos.


STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. Connect to profile that includes a guide camera
2. Move to align module and see it all greyed out and not working
3. 

OBSERVED RESULT
Align module greyed out and impossible to use

EXPECTED RESULT
Align module ready for use to plate solve and/or polar align

SOFTWARE/OS VERSIONS
Raspbian GNU/Linux version 10 (buster)


ADDITIONAL INFORMATION
Problem profile includes ZWO CCD camera on main telescope, QHY CCD camera on guider (guiding on RA axis only), Skywatcher Star Adventurer mount, filter simulator, OpenWeatherMap
Working profile as above but without QHY CCD guider

I cannot reproduce this issue, tried with multiple profiles. Align would be disabled if the camera and/or mount failed to connect.
