Celestron Motor Focuser

Tech@ZWO

The Motor Focuser need the SDK supports.

In this list:

The CGX-L Mount can be worked with Asiair.

The 1600 pro can be connected with your telescope via some adapter.

And i think the pocket power box can power for the Air .

I also want to control my Celestron motor focuser https://www.celestron.com/products/focus-motor-for-sct-and-edgehd with ASIair. The reply with "need SDK supports" means Software Development Kit. So, we can assume a driver needs to be built in order for ASIair to support the Celestron focuser.

I have two questions for ZWO: 1) Is development of a ZWO driver for the Celestron motor focuser planned? 2) Can ASIair support an external driver (not built by ZWO) like those available from INDI https://www.indilib.org/devices/focusers.html?

I could also benefit from this because the zwo EAF does not mount to my C9.25 with celestron OAG

It is truly sad that ZWO doesn't care about those of us who want to use (and some own) ZWO camers but have other equipment that isn't supported by ZWO via ASIAIR PRO. Perhaps one day ZWO management will wake up and realize that they are part of a community that supports the wonderful past time of Astronomy and do the right thing.

awhitson Thank you for your advice

I have a C11, CGX, AAP, 1600MM, Celestron focus motor. While I’d like to see it added; knowing software developers cant do everything all at once… I feel the priority foe ZWO is correct, don’t add more 3rd party support without first getting your core ecosystem fully functional. There are bugs and key features needed before they turn their attention to the celestron focus motor…. One of them being better support for CGX mounts is higher priority.

I am a +1 for this feature, but low priority

Kring Thank you for your understanding，Sir.

Well, how about making it possible to add the ZWO EAF to a Celestron Nexstar 8SE?
The bracket sold for the C8 doesn't look like it will fit a Nexstar 8SE.
Can I remove my Celestron focuser and replace it with a ZWO EAF?

Hello, i have same question -
i have nexstar 6se, with standard mount, wedge, and asi 585mc
i assume that ZWO will never support celestron focus motor (which i have); being an owner nexstar 6 SE i can't even buy ZWO EAF cause metallic support does not fit with 6 SE - well done ZWO :-(

fafa not sure why you're blaming ZWO for this.

Anyway, a simple Google search will take you to this thread over at Cloudy Nights Forums: https://www.cloudynights.com/topic/778527-celestron-c6-how-to-attach-zwo-eaf/
