Ah, I just realized those Zoom/Focus features were new in version 1.1 (Sept 12th) that I forgot to upload a release for.

The 30 seconds is for time between adjustFocus commands. I have sunrise offset set to .2 (12 minutes later) and sunset offset set to -.1 (6 minutes earlier).
5 times when manual focusing. 4 times when autofocusing with a set zoom level. 1 time when just autofocusing without a set zoom level.

Hi, I installed and ran .exe but get no results with "get current zoom / focus". It just doesnt do anything no error any anything. What am I doing wrong? Its a 5231 z12

Ok, got it installed and working the cams, but the date / prediction is 1/1/0001 at 12:00AM. Does this have to have an internet connection? This is an isolated network I am on with no internet. Thanks, Andrew

It does not need an internet connection. It does need latitude and longitude. I'm not confident that the code for calculating sunrise and sunset works in all parts of the world.

Im in Delaware USA. I had a lat and long in the settings. Any idea why the date is so far off? I dissabled it for now because it was forcing my cams to day profile and its night.

The location you entered is in western China. The USA is all negative longitude values.
Apparently the sunrise calculator code I'm using doesn't like that the entered coordinates and the time zone of the computer are so far apart.

Well I guess that would do it lol. Google listed my position as positive values. I double checked it lol. I just did it on the NASA site and it was negative. Picture to prove im not a liar lol. Ill go back tonight and fix it. Thanks!

Yeah, unfortunately there are a lot of ways of writing latitude and longitude.

Oh the West indication means negative side of prime meridian. Brushed up on my geography today. How about that. Sorry I just dont ever use coordinates in my day to day stuff and have forgotten this stuff lol.

Not this program.
I don't.

I entered the same coordinates on my own system and stepped through the code in a debugger to figure out why it was failing to find sunrise and sunset times. The code that calculates this stuff is not something I wrote so I had no idea it had that limitation.
