Autofocus Q!?

Howdy peeps!

so i have an asiair plus, and the zwo eaf. 

Does anyone else have this issue?  I set up a plan and the robot (asiair, am5, eaf etc) slews to the target and then starts an autofocus routine for whatever selected filter. It tries to build a curve, then goes to fine focus.

2.8, 2.7, 2.5, 2.4, 2.8, 3.4

“your focus is 3.4!”

wtf?  You got to 2.5!  You started at 2.8!  Why are you picking 3.4?  My blue isn’t focused the same as my green or red?

Does this happen to everyone?
