Hi Luka - I'd certainly appreciate a bit of help! The problem is that my new focuser has an absolute position encoder that reports it's position in microns. This number is not stable, and the last digit typically switches back and forwards by a micron every second or two.
The software I'm using to control all of this (Sequence Generator) is expecting the reported focuser position to be exactly what it requested, so during a focus run it will ultimately give up and report that the focuser did not reach the requested position.
What I want to do is write another driver to act as an intermediary- and either filter the position being reported, or return a focus position identical to the last request providing it is within tolerance.
If you've got time to catch up over a coffee or beer to give me some direction I'd be very grateful!
Cheers
Andrew.
