Hi Ken and Russ,
I just connected laptop to mount and used the Stellarium scope procedure you suggested with my USB serial adapter cable to the handcontroller ( with the handcontroller in PC direct mode) and it worked !!!!!
Therefore I know know Ascom is allowing devices to talk to each other
One issue though with SS you can’t park the scope back to the home position when your finished. I had to cancel PC Direct mode on the handcontroller and select park telescope and then the scope parked itself back to home position or SCP.Is there a park scope function on Stellarium ?
My next program will be PHD2. I have already connected the ZWO 120MM camera to the laptop and it can see it , so as long as PHD2 can talk to the mount I can start learning autoguiding
I think PHD2 want you to cable direct to the mount and bypass the handcontroller so I will need to install the driver for the shoestring cable in any case
Thanks Ken and Russ again.
