Hi all,

I opened a case directly with Primalucelab and they say that hold current should be 5 mA or 10 mA at maximum. I have tested my SestoSenso with 15 mA and overheating disappeared.

Regarding temperature sensors, I've tried the one that Pegasus Software supplied with its Dual Motor Focuser Controller (DMFC) that I want to use with my Meade #1209 Zero Shift Microfocuser. It works fine with Sesto Senso but as described (read once only). It's curious, but starting temperature was 23.18 degrees.. the same obtained by NH... Coincidence??

I also tried with a similar sensor purchased from AliExpress for a couple of euros. They Don't work neither in Sesto Senso nor DMFC. I asked to Pegasus Software about 2.5mm jack pinout and they said that this kind of cheap sensors won't work with DMFC and only will work with the original one that costs 18€. Cheap if compared with the 45€ worth for Sesto Senso original sensor.

If someone is able to make work this kind of cheap sensors, please advise.

I will open a different thread with my DMFC issues. Jasem is working in that, but I have no news yet.

Thanks!
