Cube3 temperature compensation not working

Post by Astropriorat »

Hi all,
It seems that the temperature compensation function is not working in my new Focuscube3 and I guess it's a simple settings issue.

Experimentally I have verified that the delta steps/ºC function in my telescope is -13 steps/ºC, that is, the higher the temperature, the more I must introduce the camera "IN" into the telescope. Then, I understand that I can just enter these parameters in the "Temperature Compensation" section of the Unity Platform and writes there like: "Steps= 62 On increase of ºC= -1.0" is this correct?

The camera control in the observatory is done through the Maxim DL software, with the above premises I must also activate the "Temperature Tracking" icon on Maxim, or not? The Cube3 unit is updated to the latest software version.

Thank you
