Focusmax works stand alone, but you cannot get maxim to periodically call it in an imaging session. You maybe able to with a script, but this is beyond my capability.

I personally use ccdautopilot. I did try acp, but I found the GUI of ccdap5 a lot easier, on a clear night I have 2 complete observatories running with autopilot very successfully. The backup service of autopilot is excellent as well, it's usually tick the options rather than writing a program to do an imaging run like in acp.

My 2c.
