BYE and new celesteron SCT focuser

[spokcs]

Just bought the new SCT autofocuser from Celestron.  Having a difficult time getting the focuser to connect to BYE.  The Driver is a unified telescope and focuser driver from ASCOM.  The telescope side connects fine, but the focuser side will not connect.  When I attempt to change the settings on the focuser, I get message that it is already connected and to choose OK.  But the focuser will not connect.  Am I missing something, or is there a known problem with BYE and this focuser?

It is common that you cannot change settings once a driver is connected. You should disconnect BYE from the telescope and then connect the focuser to set the focuser settings. Once you have the settings changed you should be able to connect both devices.

This is discussed in the user manual that was installed with the driver. Important is that you need to the Celestron-supplied calibration tool before performing the ASCOM Focuser driver setup.

No problem at all, but are you sure Windows sees the focuser.  Also, your message is a bit confusing.  You say the focuser driver is from ASCOM.... shouldn't the driver come from the focuser manufacturer?  If you use the ASOCM  Diagnostic tool does it connect?

[astroman133]

A new Celestron telescope driver was released since the first of the year. The software is not provided by Celestron, but by an independent software developer. The new driver is available for download from the ASCOM-Standrds.org web site. It has focuser control integrated with the telescope driver. Both devices are accessed via the same COM port. It just appears that because the devices are integrated that you must set them both up when neither device is connected. This apparently confused the OP.

I'm still struggling with this...  I believe the physical connections are correct.  The mount is an AVX.  I have power via the aux cable from the mount, and the mini usb in the bottom of the HC to the computer.  The focuser works fine with straight usb power, using the Celestron focuser software, which does not involve BYE at all.  Below is the trace error file from my last attempt.  Thanks for ideas...

The error message says it all.

"BYE failed to connect to the focuser failed because no port was defined and no Celestron scope was detected."

  I do not believe that this is a BYE issue since it works with other focusers. You need to correctly configure the ASCOM driver to control both the Telescope and the Focuser. The PDF file from the driver provides instructions. Below are my instructions.

Connect the port at the base of the AVX hand controller to the PC.
Connect the focuser to the AUX port on the AVX.
Power up the mount. Do a Quick Align or use the Last Alignment.
Start BYE
In the ASCOM panel, select the Telescope and click on the Settings button (the gear icon, not the checkmark icon). This should launch the ASCOM Telescope Chooser.
Select Celestron Telescope Driver from the dropdown and click on Properties.
Select the correct COM port and the correct Track Mode from the dropdowns. You can select the Advanced mode and complete the other information if you want.
Click on both OK buttons to save the settings and close the Chooser.
Now select the Focuser in the BYE ASCOM panel and click on the Settings button to launch the ASCOM Focuser Chooser.
Select the Celestron Focuser Driver from the dropdown and click on Properties.
Choose the same COM port as for the telescope and click OK twice.
Now, click on the Connect button (with the checkmark) to connect to the focuser.
If the focuser connects, then you should be able to switch the BYE ASCOM panel to the Telescope and click that Connect button.

If all went well, then you are now connected to both devices. If not, you should read the PDF file that was installed with the driver and follow the instructions for troubleshooting and support. Then submit the collected information to the driver author.
