Hi all,

Does anybody know why is greyed out the backlash box in my ekos installation?



is it something related to the driver? by the way, I'm using rbfocuser indi driver.
Tested in two different versions of kstars with the same result (but same indi version, 1.8.9)

I'm using myFocuserPro2 (DIY) focuser and the backlash is grayed out as it has to be entered from the INDI tab for the driver.

Thanks for the reply. Could you please paste a screenshot of that setting? Cannot locate anywhere. Thanks

Hello,

This depends on your focuser driver. In my case, I use myfocuserpro2, and below is where I enter the backlash focus in and out.

I hope this can help you

Thanks for the reply, Mohamed.
Definitely, it depends of the driver. Mine has not those settings. Well, in fact, I think I almost don't have any backlash. My motor is engaged directly in the fine focus knob. No intermediate/reduction gears. Works quite well.

cheers
