    The integrated detection of the main focus telescope is realized by sensing the curvature wavefront of the telescope. First of all, the curvature sensing process of the main focus telescope and the basic principle of dynamic stability transfer in multiple links are analyzed using Fourier optics theory. Secondly, the error analysis of static correction and dynamic surface shape measurement in the integrated detection of the main focus telescope is carried out. After that, the degree of freedom locking in the adjustment process is analyzed. Finally, the principle of the integrated detection process is realized through experiments. The obtained wavefront detection residual is better than 0.08λ( λ=633 nm). The spatial resolution is 10/m-1, and the temporal resolution is 0.2 Hz. This method can effectively improve the imaging quality of main focus telescope with the large-aperture large-field, and reduce the demand for the stability of the external environment in the integrated detection process by using the non-interference and high robustness characteristics of the curvature sensor, so as to provide assistance for the more detailed time-domain astronomical observation in the future.
