Open your IProg software, navigate to and look for the internal battery charge level indicator . A missing indicator or an empty battery symbol points to a dead internal cell—replace it on the PCB.

Use a "Full Test" script (if available) to see if the software can at least see the serial number. If the SN shows as 00000 or Unknown , the firmware on the internal ARM chip may be corrupted. 6. Inspecting the PCB (For Advanced Users)

Many users find that adding a (even a $5 passive hub) resolves connection loss issues during script execution. iprog programmer not connected hot

Look under "Ports (COM & LPT)" or "Universal Serial Bus controllers."

Some iProg units enter a thermal latch-off. Leave the device unplugged for 30 minutes, then:

If the overheating was temporary due to a bad external adapter, but it now refuses to connect: Uninstall all current iProg and FTDI drivers from your PC. Open your IProg software, navigate to and look

Windows can put USB hubs into a low-power sleep state to save battery.

Unstable or improper power delivery via the USB cable.

When the iProg becomes hot, it means power is flowing through a component that cannot handle it, leading to excessive heat generation. The "not connected" error in the software usually means the processor is either not getting enough power, is being overloaded by a short, or has been damaged by the heat.

We are excited to announce the release of Gaia Sky 3.7.1. This release was planned for last Christmas, but we had to postpone it due to the …

What is Gaia Sky?

Gaia Sky is a real-time, 3D, astronomy visualisation platform for desktop and VR that runs on Windows, Linux, and macOS. Open source and libre.

Gaia Sky enables the exploration of our Universe by means of scientific datasets. The software includes an integrated dataset manager that grants access to several cutting-edge astronomical catalogs such as the Gaia DR1/2/3 star catalogs, SDSS galaxies, or the nearby galaxies catalog. It is developed in the framework of ESA’s Gaia mission to chart about 1 billion stars of our Galaxy in the Gaia group of the Astronomisches Rechen-Institut (ZAH, Universität Heidelberg). Explore the cosmos without leaving the comfort of your home!

A procedurally-generated planet.

Worlds of data

We have curated a long list of scientific datasets for you to explore in Gaia Sky. Planets, moons, asteroids, stars, nebulae, galaxies, quasars, black holes, star clusters, iso-density maps, virtual textures, and much, much more!
Use the in-app dataset manager to pick and choose the datasets you want to explore.
