AA6 Focuser Driver

Post by Forum_2016 »

Hello,

I wish to utilise the autofocus capability of Astro Art.

The Astroart web site plug-in shows as Autofocus for Astroart 4 - Version 1.20.

However, the included readme file shows Version 1.30 for Astroart 4.0

I am using AA6. Can anyone advise which is the correct version/plug-in?

Regards,

Patrick.

The Auto Focus feature is included in AA6, no plugin needed. Your focuser does need an ASCOM driver. Take an image, select a focus star, go to the Focus/guide tab, click focus. Select your ASCOM driver and then go to the Auto focus tab you'll need to play with the settings to see what works best for your setup.
