Canon EOS Rebel T7

[RayM0506]

Hi there,

 

I've used your software for years but have taken a break from astrophotography for a few years.  Did the free upgrade to your latest version.  I have a newer camera.  I DID reinstall the latest version of the software.  Here is how it is listed in the software:

 

19:47:38  DEVICEINFO DESCRIPTION IS Canon EOS Rebel T7

19:47:38  DEVICEINFO NUMBER IS 3470492101.

19:47:38  YOUR *REAL* MODEL NUMBER IS 4294967294(FFFFFFFE)

19:47:38  Generic model 153 assumed!

19:47:43  Attempting to connect camera...

19:47:43  Canon drivers 'Canon\' initialized.

19:47:45  1200D-T7 CONNECTED!

19:47:46  EdsInitializeSDK() ERROR!

 

As you can see it connects then disconnects due to the error on the last line.  Tried a new usb chord but got the same results.  Can you give me ANY help with this?  I absolutely love your software and want to continue using it.  ANY help is appreciated. 

 

Thank you.

Ray,

By "the latest", I assume you mean 3.1.18. This is important since versions of BYE that were released before the camera was supported in Canon's SDK will not be supported by BYE.

There are two banner lines at the top of this page. One asks you to always include the Camera model and version number of BYE with each new question or issue. The second banner line asks you to re-install BYE if you get the EDSInitializeSDK error, which you can see is in the last line of the reported log entries.

Please re-install 3.1.18. If that doesn't work, please install version 3.2.0 Release Candidate from the Pre-releases menu at the right of the Downloads page

Thank you SO Much!  It works great now.  3.2 that is.  Will I have to re-purchase this now?  If so How much when it is released?
