Cooled Asi Cam - by: Horand

Hi,

I received a new and shiny ASI174MM-COOL yesterday and couldn't wait to test it (at least at home as it was cloudy).
Unfortunately the cooler didn't start even after setting temperatures in Ekos. So I looked into the indi_asi_ccd source code and saw that you do not send the requested value to the Cam.
I added two lines to the SetTemperature function in the code (ASISetControlValue ASI_COOLER_ON to true and ASI_REQUEST_TEMP to the requested value)
Afterwards everything works like intended.
(Excuse me for only writing pseudo code, but I'm writing from the train without access to the source code on my RaspberryPi at home)

I'm not sure if that is the correct place in the code to send the values to the cam or if it should be in the NewNumbers section but it's working at the moment.

Some additional info:
I checked out the latest svn version
Maybe the cooler should be set to OFF at disconnect.
