If you want to control it with a Windows Pc or Mac you can use the same SynScan Bluetooth Adaptor .

( programs it has been tested with for pc )........

The Sky version 5 and The Sky Version X And Stellarium so far will work with other programs as well

Now works with Cartes du Ciel and Skytools 3 ( Ascom ) running the Ascom celestron driver.

Just to add to the list of compatible devices / software:

Cathy has made me Bluetooth adapters for a Meade LX90 and a Celestron Nexstar SLT. Both work beautifully using SkySafari 4 Plus running on a Nexus 4 and a Nexus 7-2013.

I recently bought a Toshiba Encore Windows 8.1 tablet, and the Celestron Bluetooth controller works beautifully with Cartes du Ciel and the Ascom Celestron drivers. I haven't tested the Meade LX90 with the Toshiba yet, but I have no reason to think there would be any problems, as every other combination has worked perfectly.

A very happy customer!
