Focuscube Zero Hand Controller Motor Limits

Post by LKOsiliconMage »

I have a Focuscube Zero with the Hand Controller, and wanted to know if the hand controller is supposed to obey the min/max limits? I was using the hand controller and the Focus Controller software to set up the travel limits, and noticed the following behavior:
1) with no limits set, the software and hand controller will not allow the motor to move below zero, as documented and expected.
2) Once I set the max limit, I noticed that the software obeys both the min and max limits, but the hand controller was allowing me to move beyond the max.

Should the hand controller obey the max limit, once set?

Unfortunatelly this is a software limit (for remote operation) so the hand controller will not obey to this configured limit.

Ah, that's fine. Remote software control is how this will run 99% of the time anyway! I just need to keep that in mind the times I'm using the hand controller.
