Skywatcher - Synscan- Sky Safari issues
I知 looking for advice from somebody with a Skywatcher Goto mount (Synscan),
who has successfully setup/used Sky Safari 6 Pro on an Android(9) platform, using a Synscan Wifi adapter?
I can get everything working with the Synscan Pro app on both the Android platform and the Windows 10 platform.
My Android device is a Samsung Galaxy Tab S4 tablet, my Windows 10 device is a Dell XPS 13.
I check that I知 connected to the SynScan_WiFi_171e network that appears as an available network, and the Synscan app sets up fine every time.
But Sky Safari refuses to connect to that same network. On Windows 10, Stellarium and Carte Du Ciel also refuse to connect.
I知 using an IP address of 192.168.4.2 and a port number of 11882, even though on the back page of the Wifi adapter guide that was included with the adapter, the IP address is given as 192.168.4.1 and the Port number as 11880. I致e tried these without any success.
I知 not so worried about Stellarium and Carte du Ciel running on Windows because I want to be using my laptop for imaging using Sharpcap.
But I really do want to get Sky Safari working on my Android tablet for scope control.
I知 sure it痴 not supposed to be this hard, but I have been known, every now and then, to make things hard for myself!
If somebody can point me in the right direction with the steps they used to get things working, especially the IP address and Port settings, which I think must be the problem, I would be so grateful!
Cheers
Chris
