Celestron EdgeHD

Hi,
What software lets you control a Celestron CGE 1400 Pro EdgeHD?
Thanks
Bart

There's nothing really special about it Bart, so nearly all main shelf planetarium software will drive both Meade and Celestron mounts. I know that my planetarium software of choice, Voyager, drives all CGE/CGEM and CGE Pro's natively. Prices range from free (Cartes Du Ciel, Stellarium et al.) to anything you like.

You didn't mention "Hallo northern sky (http://www.hnsky.org)" which despite the name works perfectly in the south, or "C2A (http://www.astrosurf.com/c2a)" both of which work with any ASCOM compatible mount.

I should have stated "et al.", so I have. You're quite right Andrew - there are a few freebies out there that are worth looking at. I've run HNS (and found it pretty good actually) but had not heard of C2A. Looks basic, but I think that is because some developers take display screenshots of their software from low-resolution monitors for some reason.
