AZStarPRO – AZ drive GoTo controller for azimuth mount

AZStarPRO – azimuth mount control system. The AZStarPRO system is designed to automate the control of azimuth mounts, and can be used both in stand-alone mode and in control mode using a computer or mobile device (phone, tablet, etc.).

On a PC, the AZStarPRO kit works with the SynScan application and with any astronomical software that supports the ASCOM platform. For example, with the planetarium Stellarium, Cartes de Ciel, StarCalc and others.

AZStarPRO also supports work with the astronomical platform INDI and ZWO ASIAIR  Pro.

The mobile version of the SynScan application must be installed on the mobile device. In the planetarium program on a mobile device, you should select the SkyWatcher SynScan as the telescope control, as well as the Az GoTo mount. AZStarPRO supports the following mobile apps – SkySafari, Stellarium mobile plus, DSOPlaner and others.

AZStarPRO communicates with a PC via USB or WiFi, and with a mobile device via WiFi.

The variety of platforms, drivers and applications with which AZStarPRO can work allows creating especially user-friendly control conditions depending on the required tasks. AZStarPRO supports autoguiding and can be used for astrophotography.

AZStarPRO comes with a universal manual joystick that allows you to autonomously operate the mount without a computer, smartphone or tablet.
