Capabilities Question / Tracking through AstroEQ 4.5 and StarsPi
« on: November 12, 2016, 11:57:27 »
Hi Tom,
I'm interested in trying to do basic tracking through version 4.5 of the AstroEQ through its st4 input. Ideally I'd like to do this via a RaspberryPi running StarsPi- based on linguider which can be controlled via a smartphone. For a guidecam ive got a QHY 5-II C with guideport. I'd like to use AstroEQ v4.5 to connect my guidecam to the two motors from the dual axis kit.
Please could you advise on how to set up the AstroEQ to do this. Does AstroEQ still need to be connected to EQmod? I appreciate that this wouldn't be using AstroEQ to its full potential but it seems like it could be a portable solution for taking my scope out into the field- at least in theory.
Many thanks,
Will
