SESTO SENSO settings
ATTENTION: it is necessary that both SESTO SENSO and EAGLE CORE firmwares are
updated to version 2.0 or later. Before continuing with the SESTO SENSO calibration it is
necessary to install it on your telescope following the instructions in the SESTO SENSO
manual.
From version 2.0 of Eagle App, you can
manage the setting for SESTO SENSO robotic
focusing motor using EAGLE CORE. Selecting
SestoSenso settings, you access the SESTO
SENSO management menu. If SESTO SENSO
has not yet been calibrated, the window will
appear as shown in the figure, stating the
firmware version, the temperature detected
(if connected to the optional temperature
sensor) and the current position.
Calibration procedure:
Manually bring (by turning the focuser knob)
the focuser to about halfway of the focuser
travel, then using the "Slow +" or “Slow -" and
"Fast +” or "Fast -“ buttons bring your focuser
to the most position internal and then press
the "Stop" button when you have reached it
(you do not have to go to the stop point of
your focuser but you can stop 1 or 2 mm before the end of movement). Do not
worry if the buttons work in the opposite direction, they are only used for
calibration.
Warning: take care to stop the engine (by pressing the
Stop button) BEFORE it reaches the end of the focuser,
otherwise the focuser or the SESTO SENSO engine may
break.
