At this point, you seem to be stuck in the quicksand. You can't complete
the install and you can't uninstall. The cause is unknown but it looks
like you have a...
Hello -- ... programming with Ascom. > Isn't there a simple example in Matlab that shows how to connect the scope and to send move commands? No, but I made one...
PS: If you selected Simulator for the Telescope, and you didn't hand-start the ASCOM Telescope Simulator, then deleting the T variable from your workspace will...
I assume your code works with the Focuser Simulator. If so, then the problem is the broken Lacy driver, not your code or the Client Toolkit wrapper. If you...
Ok, I understand now. I'm afraid I am in no position to fix it. Seemingly, with the later driver, PHD's calls to the driver and their timing does something...
Thanks for the reply! Yes, the "normal" code works perfectly with the simulator. The invoke code was just an attempt to get around this cast issue. Right now...
The problem with the EasyFocus driver means that the driver toolkit can't be used, but there's no reason why an application shouldn't replicate what the driver...
Bob, Mikael:
I don't know how it's happening but this registry permissions thing is
something I've seen a few times now in relation to ASCOM. It could be...
... Will you disable temp. comp. in the EasyFocus driver, or in the Temperature Compensated Focuser shim that Chris is developing? -- ... Tom Krajci ...
Here are some initial findings based on indoor testing of the temp. compensated focuser shim 5.5.3 and FocusMax 3.5.24Beta...coupled to my MoonLite/EasyFocus...
What values did you set for temperature coefficient and Offset? Can you note what the display on the moonlite focuser box says? Did you have temperature...
I'm disabling the temp reading in my little application when directly using the EasyFocus driver - If I use POTH or Chris' Temperature Compensated Focuser shim...
... Coeff = 100 per degree...which was arbitrary Offset was 2250. ... Since I use the MoonLite mini-controller...no built-in display. Only displays of focuser...
... I tried a moving average of 120 seconds. Reported focuser position no longer shows jitter. Hmmmm, moving average for calculating temperature to apply for...

For kicks you can regsvr32 the C:\Program Files\Common Files\ASCOM\Helper.dll yourself in an command prompt and see if that's the only one failing. Then if it...
Yes, choose any of the AS-GT choices - that's the mount you have. You can set the telescope parameters (aperture, focal length and obstruction) if you like...
sigh - it looks as if I'm going to have to add some logging to the shim. We need to know what's really happening; what values it's reading, what messages it's...
Two other things: The temperature reported to the application is read directly from the real focuser, it's not the averaged value. There is no jog command for...
