I would work on getting your testing and your parameters setup in the current generic sequence. just don’t add in any targets. Once you have things setup you can then save the generic sequence as a profile. From there you can apply the profile you just saved to any sequence you wish to start. I have several profiles for my different scopes and cameras I use. If you want to update a profile you can always apply the profile you want to work on to a blank/generic sequence do your testing/update then save the sequence as a profile back onto the profile. This will overwrite the old profile. Just don’t add in any target information as every time you call in that profile the targets will always be there. Think of a profile as your starting template that contains all of your equipment information and settings you need to use for every sequence you want to start. You apply the profile to sequence update the sequence with your specific target information then save the sequence. if you edit the sequence only the sequence is updated and saved but the profile that was used to get you started is not changed.
For the focuser compensation, yes that is what I use. I check the “Focuser backlash compensation” and keep the “iN” and set the “Compensation step size” to 500.
Now I see what you’re referring to about the Fine and Coarse. these are the number of steps you want your stepping motor to take when you press the Fine or Coarse buttons. For your example if you select the In: “Fine” button your stepper motor will move 50 steps if you press the In: “Coarse” button the stepper motor will move 150 steps. I very rarely ever use them. However that’s what you want to use to get your focuser to move when you start working on determining your step size to use for your autofocus setup.
Hope this helps and is not to confusing.
