Ok, here goes.
My internet account has a static IP address. Then I have port forwarding in the router which allows connections to computers, IP switches and IP cameras. I power everything up via an IP switch (9258) which has its own web address.
Once powered up I can access the computer either via Team viewer or Radmin.
The computer (fitPC4) controls the roof via USB (scopedome control systems), mount, focusing and camera.
I power up my camera, focuser and fans via Mount Hub Pro hardware. This also powers up the computer on power up.
My cloud sensor is always on and I connect it via USB.
All equipment is controlled by a variety of programs which include SkyX(mount), Maxim DL6 (cameras), Focusmax 4 (focuser, cameras and mount) Pinpoint (plate solving) and Scopedome (Roof)
Everything is controlled by CCDAP5 as the command program. It watches the weather, controls the mount, camera, plates solves, everything to produce imaging runs on selected targets.
That's it. Sounds easy but you need to be good at bug hunting and rely on the wisdom of others who have come before you to be successful.
