How to connect to SkyWatcher mount in a script

Post by Andrew Cool » 02 Apr 2020, 08:33

How do I connect to a SkyWatcher mount with a script?

I have an SkyWatcher AltAz Allview mount that I want to control to take an allsky panorama by stepping to various
altaz positions.

I'll assume you are connecting to your mount thru an ASCOM driver. Once you manually go to setup-ASCOM driver- select your mounts driver from then on all you need to connect thru a script is "Telescope.connect"
