This code is still pretty new, and there will likely be issues when connecting to specific hardwares. Once you define the type of link between the scope and phone, this is basically it! Stellarium Mobile Plus will try hard to automatically recognize the protocol, the type of mount, and mount status and all other available information about the hardware whenever possible. SynScan app really is a TCP connection to a local socket opened by the SynScan app. SynScan App running on the phone: this also currently work on Android only. This one works only on Android, because iOS doesn’t allow apps to use Bluetooth SPP. Currently bluetooth 2.0, using SPP profile. This covers Wifi enabled telescopes, or LAN connection.īluetooth connection.
You can do this easily by pointing the telescope to the pole star (0 north aprox.) and then move down until it's horizontal (use a bubble level.). Network connection (serial over a TCP socket). By default, the telescope should be aligned to north (0 azimuth) and leveled horizontally (0 altitude) before connecting to Stellarium. In order to have your phone talk to the telescope controller, you first need to connect it to your mount or hand controller. or any compatible telescopes (most of the current GOTO telescope are compatible with one of these protocols). This new update finally allows to control a GOTO telescope directly from the phone, by using NexStar/SynScan or LX200 serial protocols. We have just released version 1.1.0 of Stellarium Mobile Plus, featuring major improvements to the telescope control capabilities. To slew the mount use the curser to select an open and press ctrl + 1. Open Stellarium and the mount should be connected to the mount.
Set up the mount and connect the handset to the laptop and power up.ĩ. Select AutoStar compatible as the device model and then press OK.Ĩ. Scroll down to device settings and select the comm port assigned to the usb-serial adaptor.Ħ. Press the ADD button and select "Stellarium directly from serial port"ĥ. If the configure button does not become active, close Stellarium and then reopen and return to the tool box and then the telescope control box. Select "load on start-up" and then press the configure button. Go to the plug-ins tab and scroll down to telescope control and select. Open Stellarium and press f2 to open the tool box.ģ. Always use the same usb port for the connection.Ģ. Install and connect the usb-serial adaptor to the laptop and then go to device manager to find the comm port assigned to the adaptor. I need some guidance to get linked up, help ?įor this I will assume that you will be using a serial-usb adaptor to connect the laptop to the handset to the laptop.ġ. I've been spending a ton of time trying to get Starry night SOE to connect and it's been a royal "PITA" to say the least. It's been a couple of months since I've tried to connect my Meade lxd55 to telescope control using Stellarium.
