Thanks! I just added now the commands for setting minimum & maximum position. Please test and report back.

Does anybody know if it is possible to do a factory reset on the focuser to test the first run initialization sequence?

Dear RoMe,
unfortunately I don't know, but I suppose that the first time initialization should work if we are able to successfully set the limits later on.

I'm planning to get another SestoSenso for my RC telescope, since I really love the clean and compact design (and really like the motors to be fixed with the telescope), so I supposedly am able to test the first time initialization as well in the time to come.

Where can i find these commands?

When i try to focus and i let the motor run from step 40000 to 20000 i can see that it is reasonably in focus when passing around step 25000.
When i again go from 20000 to 25000 it is no longer in focus. i can say just total out of focus.

What can be the reason of this behaviour?

@Astrosnoesky

If you have the chance try your exact setup with the Primaluce Windows tool (you can do it at daytime - just focus on a belltower or anything similar reasonably far away) if the focus point is fix regardless of the focussing motion than it's perhaps an INDI related problem - if the problem persists, read on

I'd suppose it is a mechanical problem.
First of all it seems to be some kind of backlash problem to me. Get sure, that you have a tight mechanical connection of the shafts of your SestoSenso and the focuser.
On the other hand don't overtighten the fixation of the Sesto housing at the outer barrel of your focuser.
Get the friction right and reassure, that no fixation-screw is accidentally tightened.

I hope you'll get it working soon...

Cheers Chris

Thanx Chris i will try that.

Hi jasem, I bought sixth sense and I'm using it connected to Raspberry with Ubuntu Mate used as server indi. When I connect to Kstars / Ekos it connects but does not allow me to set anything ... Any advice?

What do you mean "does not allow" exactly? are you getting any error messages?

No errors in connection, I attach a screenshot. the only parameter that I can change is offset, if for example I write a value type 5000 and press set the focuser starts going to the value. if I try to reverse the movement it does not always work in one direction. Even if I change the limits, this is not set ...

What about when you control from the focuser tab within Ekos...? As that’s where to control it from...

Hello, from the focuser tab the only thing I can change is the sinc. When I change the value of sinc, this is automatically written in absolute position and when I set the absolute value, the focuser moves. If I try to reverse the direction it does not work, it only moves in one direction. Is it possible that I have to set the values with the supplied software for windows and then save them in the sixth sense internal memory before using it with Ekos?
