freiform created a new topic ' Backlash and focusers' in the forum. 4 years ago

Hi,

when using [1] to drive my motorfocuser, the backlash field in EKOS' focuser tab is greyed out. I had a look at the focus_simulator which uses FOCUSER_HAS_BACKLASH and two methods SetFocuserBacklash() SetFocuserBacklashEnabled(). Since with the simulator the field is no longer greyed out, I tried implementing it; it won't compile.
FOCUSER_HAS_BACKLASH and FOCUSER_CAN_REVERSE are not declared anywhere, and don't show up in the documentation [2] anymore. FACUSER_CAN_REVERSE at least used to work. Has this been removed? Also, FocusMAxPosN isn't declared anymore, although it shows up in the docs. Any ideas?
