On the subject of ZWO cameras, USB serial connections , drivers etc....

I’m setting up my new laptop next week ( when it decides to finally arrive &#129324
Installing Ascom , EQMOD, Backyard EOS, Stellarium, Stellarium scope, PHD2, Autostakkert, Deep Sky stacker and Startools etc....

I’m controlling my HEQ5 Pro mount using both options PC Direct ( handcontroller still connected ) via a serial USB adapter and EQDirect USB via a shoestring USB2EQ5 custom cable

When I purchased the Digitech serial USB adapter it came with a mini CD so you would assume one would have to install the respective driver in order to assign a com port for the serial USB adapter ??

In regard to ZWO cameras I purchased the ZWO ASI 120MM to use for autoguiding, once again I would assume you would have to install the respective driver for this camera so the Laptop can communicate to the camera over USB ?

Thanks in advance
