Issue: The focus script works, but the range is not wide enough.
The script should run from a focus position of -3000 to +3000 in steps
of 300.
Focus History (remember that each night the counter resets to 0 even though
the focus position does not change).
- Jan 15. Focus: -3000 (approx)
- Jan 17. Focus: +3200 (approx) beginning, +2300 end
- Jan 18. Focus: -1800 at beginning (KPD2109, AM=1.9, HA=5
- Jan 19. Focus: ~100-500. Some clouds so hard to be too precise.
- Jan 26: Focus: 1800 at beginning.
Then at 9:30pm it was 800.
at 10:30, changed targets, had to shutdown and restart rts2,
focus at -300.
- Jan. 27: Focus: 600 at beginning.
- Feb. 3: Focus: 2200 at beginning.
600 when switched at 10pm.
- Feb. 5: Focus: -1700 at 10:30pm (first focus of the night)
- Feb. 6: Focus: 2900 at 7pm:
1800 at 10:15.
- Feb. 7: Focus: 2000 at start,
had to restart rts2: then focus -600 (which
would be 1400 compared to the start of the night).
- Feb. 8: Focus: 1500 at start
- Feb. 10: Focus: 0 is pretty good on PG1219.
- Feb 11: Focus: -1800 at 10pm on PG1219
What a current focus run looks like:
