Hi,

Please wait several days.

We need some time to develop it.

HI - I hope things are all going well given the Corona virus outbreak.

Tthank you for the X2 driver. Since this is now available from TSX, I installed an EAF on my scope last week. All works well except for reporting the temperature.

This is only available from within the settings section of the interface. However, the temperature is not then available within TSX which means that e.g. scripts which monitor the focuser temperature do not work.

Reporting the temperature to TSX is pretty straightforward - you just need to implement the focuser temperature interface - see below.

Would you be able to add this into the next release?

Thank you,

Hi Colin,

OK, I will ask our developer to fit it.

Thanks for your report. And for the Corona virus outbreak, do not worry。 Although the current situation is serious, we believe that everything will be brought under control.

Thanks

Thanks, Chad.

The download for the EAF X2 plug in is still dated from 2019 - so not sure if the updated driver has been posted?

Thank you,

Hi Colin，

Hi Colin,

Do you mean the tar.gz for MAC/Linux?

Thanks

Chad

chad

Hi Colin,

If you mean the tar.gz, I think there is no need to update. It should works fine.

Thanks

Thanks, Chad - but with the Linux version, although the temperature is displayed in the settings dialogue, it is not available to TSX to report as a normal focuser would - and hence you can't e.g. check for temperature changes in a script.

All that is needed is to implement the TSX interface I mentioned in my earlier post.

Thank you,

Colin
