Ekos again refuses my focuser to move beyond 100000. It has a Max travel hardcoded to 10000. My focuser goes to 188600. This was fixed in bug 389929 back in 2018 but this bug resurfaced.
what focus is this? does it report absolute maximum position property?
(In reply to Jasem Mutlaq from comment #1) > what focus is this? does it report absolute maximum position property? Yes it reports 188600 , on startup : 2021-01-08T22:31:28: [INFO] Motor 1 max position is 61802 2021-01-08T22:31:28: [INFO] Motor 0 max position is 188600
This problem may live in the driver side of things but I'm not sure as I have trouble reproducing it :/ I'm adding sanity checks to the driver and am testing with that. Need to wait for clear skies though for actual test.
Could it be that FocusMaxPosN (which is exposed as FOCUS_MAX.FOCUS_MAX_VALUE) is set in lots of drivers/focuser/ files but in none of the drivers/rotator/ files ?
Issue no longer reproduces. That's both good and bad because nothing really changed and it might resurface tomorrow. Closing for now.
and it reproduced again 2021-02-11T21:43:44 Focusing outward by 20000 steps... 2021-02-11T21:43:45 Focuser error, check INDI panel. 2021-02-11T21:43:45 Autofocus failed, moving back to initial focus position 173443. So it cannot move to 193443. Which is correct because the Focus Max Travel 188600 is properly shown in EKOS. INDI panel logs: 2021-02-11T20:43:45: [ERROR] Requested position out of bound. Focus maximum position is 188600 What can this be ?
Good to mention it here: https://invent.kde.org/education/kstars/-/merge_requests/212
