Hand controller & mororfocus was created by wsuyker
Hi,
My C11 focuses using an Avalon FOCS C11 attached to my M-Uno. For occasional visual observation, I like using the handcontroller, however, it seems to support only one focusmotor speed. Is it possible to switch this speed higher/ lower using only the handcontroller?
Thanks, Willem

Hi Willem

Since to the StarGo Keypad buttons are already assigned many functions, no more else features can be operated. So the focuser changing speed should be changed inside the StarGo Software.

By the way by setting a Medium Motor Speed and Step/Pulse Ratio from 3 to 5, you can perform a fine focus with repeatedly quick press on the Focus +/- button, on the other hand, holding more the 1 second pressure on the button, the focuser can smoothly move at medium speed.

Best regards
