Yes I have same values ... when not communication with OnStep, but when I run the communication tests it goes higher anyhow on my side never more 30ms .
What I suggested was to run the test over a long period and in parallel run the ping sot than you can see what's happening at network level.
Anyhow when the timeout arrives with the test scripts you can (with good probability) deduce it is a network problem.

If you use the ESP8266 without external antenna it is more likely to limit good connection to some 10 to 20 meters outdoors .
Example in my observatory despite the wooden structure I have no good connection between Observatory and Home (Observatory to home WiFi is 40 meters strait line without obstacles) After that I installed a WiFi antenna outside without success.
Do you use the WiFi of your Raspberry?

Yes i use wifi of raspberry

OK.

So I suppose Raspberry is running Indiserver and Kstars!
OnStep is connected to Raspberry over WiFi.
Do you also connect remotely to Raspberry via WiFi with VNC?

Yes running Indi e kstars but now i'm trying indiweb manager.
Onstep is connected to raspberry over wifi.
For connection remotely i use vnc 64 bit.

This is most probably one of the cause of your network issue.
The Raspberry pi must route OnStep and VNC traffic which is not huge I agree, theoretically should be largely enough but by experience Raspberry Pi WiFi is not one of the best for that.
This is the reason Why I decide to go over Optical fiber finally.

I got this kind of problems in two scenarii:
Raspberry running IdI/Kstars and VNC for remote connection
and later
I tried Raspberry as a USB over IP server so taht I could remotely connect all devices as if they are connected to my remote machine.

In both case I got this WiFi Bottleneck .

Di you ever try wit an Ethernet cable for the remote VNC connection?

I know it is not a solution to your WiFi but a test to see if the problem remains

I've never tried with a network cable, I'll try next week and see what happens.
Thanks.

Good luck,

keep in touch

Sure.

Hello,

I have noticed INDI uses weather temperature for focusing control even though you have a separate telescope temperature sensor.
My OnStep web server shows those two different values in a right way - telescope temperature in the focuser section.
Also the ASCOM OnStep focuser driver seems to pass the right value.
Would it be possible to have it in INDI as well? Many thanks in advance.

Best regards,

Hi,

There is a weather tab in Onstep where temperature is displayed but I think it is the value of the BME280 sensor.
The values of the Auxiliary are all displayed in the Output tab if configured.
In principle everything is possible but for developing the specific needs one need the specific hardware, so I need to know what exactly your config is to understand and investigate.

Regards

Hi Alain,

Thank you for your prompt response.
I wouldn't request any special stuff - my DS18B20 sensor is a standard for telescope temperature, I guess.

// FOCUSER TEMPERATURE

---

see onstep.groups.io/g/developer/wiki/Configuration_Rotator_Focuser
#define FOCUSER_TEMPERATURE DS18B20 // OFF, THERMISTOR or n. Where n is the ds18b20 s/n for focuser temp.

I have one MaxESP3 with BME280 weather sensor and DS18B20 telescope temp sensor and a custom board equipped with DS18B20 .

For both it would be great to havre the telescope temperature value in INDI.

If I could be of any help, let me know, please.
But unfortunately I have little experience with coding...

Best regards,
Wieslaw
