Hi Ron,

Hi Ron, I debugged my ASI EAF through the hokey-cokey to see how it coped with the outward then immediately afterward, inward movement. The code is event driven with a user defined "polling" period (say 500ms). So an outward motion is started and every 500ms the focuser is queried to see what's happening. If the focuser is still moving then the system waits; if the focuser has completed the motion then the system starts the inward motion.

I don't have a Celestron focuser so I can't do the same thing with that. The only things I can suggest are:
1. Make sure you're on the latest version of Indi and the drivers to ensure you have the latest bug fixes.
2. If the Celestron driver works like the ZWO EAF, then there will be a polling period in the Indi tab that you can set. You could try upping the value and see if that fixes your problem.
3. If the above don't work you could raise an issue and hopefully someone with knowledge of the Celestron driver would be able to take a look.

Regards,
John.
