More About the Q-Focuser

The Q Focuser is easily adapted to a wide variety of systems thanks to the slotted adapter plates. Rather than using fixed holes, these open slots allow for plates to be placed and adjusted as needed to put the focuser at the proper distance and height for your telescope. The standard version would be installed on the standard focus adjustment side of your system.   In the event that you have just one focus adjustment knob, the Q Focuser would be attached to that side or the coarse adjustment.    All of the necessary screws are also included.  

An external temperature gauge is included with both the standard and high precision focuser versions.  

The included QHYCCD drivers support both Windows (ASCOM and Linux systems.  ASCOM drivers integrate all basic functions like movement, customized current position, limit switches, torque maintenance and temperature display which allows control through other third party softwares.
