PegasusAstro FocusCube 3

Open chrsoo opened this issue 10 months ago • 5 comments

The PegasusAstro Focuser DMFC driver indicates support for...

  • PegasusAstro Motor Focus Kit
  • PegasusAstro FocusCube
  • PegasusAstro FocusCube 2

Doing due diligence for potential purchase.

FocusCube 2 is now discontinued and replaced by FocusCube 3.

Does anybody know if the newer FocusCube 3 is also supported?

If not, any plans of supporting it in the near future?

I doubt it will work out of box, but it should be easy to add FC3 support. I'll ask Pegasus for protocol description.

Evangelos promised to send documents once they return from NEAF24 (around 24 April).

@polakovic - any news from Evangelos / PegasusAstro?

Not yet :( I'll try to ping Evans again...

Still nothing, I pinged him again today...

Hopefully done, I had to make new driver for FocusCube3+ devices, because the protocol is substantially different:
