Greetings. I am having an issue getting the autofocus routine to work with my feather touch focuser on the RC 8 via MaximDl 5 autofocus routine (latest version).
I get a nice V curve with a decreasing FWHM then at the top part of the ascending V it swings to and fro mutliple times then says Error cannot find focus.
I have tried the automatic settings (taken from the focuser and camera)
also as the manual says I have tried adjusting step size and also focal length.
If anyone has got this sorted could they please share the settings they were using?
My set up is feather touch 2" focuser and RC8 adaptor, RC 8 plus QSI 683 running on a windows 7 laptop. I just updated Maxim last week so it is the latest copy.
Many thanks
graham
