Malcom, and all...Dave has released a new driver for SharpSky focuser, which fixes a direction of movement issue with some programs like APT.

With the new driver, SharpSky direction can be reversed in the properties dialogue. Some programs, like APT, the direction of movement "in/out" was not the same direction SharpSky focuser would move. In focus control programs like FOCUSMAX this was not an issue as they have reverse direction movement control.

I tried APT with ShaprSky...worked fine..but I didn't notice the direction of travel...this attends to this issue.

New driver available here.
