Is anyone successfully using their mMicrotouch focuser with Stellarmate?I'm having a world of pain with mine! Research online unfortunately shows previous problems with this combination.Mount is Tak Temma NJP, Camera is QSI 6162, Guider is SX and the focuser is Microtouch by Starizona.To recap, on a clear night this week. I ran a test sequence - platesolve, guide, capture, flip, solve, guide, capture ok without problems. (no logging unfortunately).So I then ran a second sequence (with logging - see attachment

) enabling the focuser - which platesolved ok, focused ok, guided ok, filter changed ok - all good until meridian flip.Meridian flip then performed ok, plate solved again ok, guiding resumed ok, but the focus appeared to fail/stall out, on filter change post flip/plate solve, preventing capture.This has unfortunately happened many times now, with every version of the software I've tried so far -  I'm currently using version 3:5:3 stable but have tried previous beta
