FocusDreamPRO - USB ASCOM, INDIGO Stepper Motor Focus Controller

Description

FocusDreamPRO
- control unit for the stepper motor of electric focusers (Stepper Motor Focus Controller). It is designed for manual and automated focusing process, as well as for automatically maintaining accurate focus depending on changes in ambient temperature.
FocusDreamPRO allows you to focus in manual and automatic mode directly from your PC, using standard astronomical programs such as:
Sequence Generator Pro, MaximDL, FocusMax, BahtinovGrabber
and other programs that support the ASCOM, INDIGO platform in the focus section.
FocusDreamPRO also features a proprietary FocusDreamPRO Control panel application that allows you to quickly refocus with the help of the interface buttons or use the left or right mouse button to focus, which can be especially useful for astronomers of fans of planetary photography.
Through the use of microstepping mode of operation of the stepper motor (1/32 steps), FocusDreamPRO provides high accuracy of focus and smoothness of the movement of the focuser.
The FocusDreamPRO controller is compatible also with Robofocus and Moonlite stepper motor.
To operate the FocusDreamPRO controller with a Robofocus and Moonlite stepper motor, a different firmware version is required.
