I close it this was because I’ve found that if you close it via the top right window icon, the settings don’t always save and you end up having to do it all again. I then save this as my default and exit out, closing Stellarium the same way as above. This will open a new box that I’ve configured as per the screenshot below. Tick “Load at startup” and then press the “Configure” button. Open up the Configuration again, go to plugins and then scroll down to Remote Control. Once you’ve done that, close the plugins, exit Stellarium via the close program button on the bottom toolbar (this opens the same way you opened the right side one.) Restart Stellarium. But in both cases I looked up the needed information from the manufacturers websites.įrom there, go to the Telescopes tab and populate the information specific to your own ones, as I’ve done below. I also have similar information for my 450D. You can see from the above screenshot that my camera specs are already entered. Open up Stellarium and go to the left side until the toolbar opens, and then click on the spanner icon (Configuration.) From there select the Plugins tab and then scroll down the left of that box to Ocular. The first thing you want to set up is the Ocular plugin. For what I do, these plugins are: Oculars, Remote Control and Telescope Control. Stellarium uses a set of plugins in order to control the mount correctly. Actually my language had some more colourful metaphors if I’m brutally honest…But over time I’ve managed to integrate it more and more into my astro work until I’m now at the point where I’m ready to use it to control what the mount does and where she points. I’ll admit that when I first installed it I had a quick look and said “OMG, that’s way too complicated” and left it for some time.
STELLARIUM UPDATES SOFTWARE
Stellarium is a great piece of software that you can use for various aspects of astronomy and astrophotography. Software: ASCOM platform, SynScan, PHD2, Stellarium, APT The current version (as of this update) is 0.20. The walkthrough has been updated to reflect these changes which came into effect from version 0.19.
STELLARIUM UPDATES UPDATE
Since the recent update though, Stellarium no longer needs that and can operate telescopes from within itself.
Since originally writing this walkthrough Stellarium has been updated and I referenced the StellariumScope standalone program for telescope control within there.
It’s simply what I use and I wish to share how I go about my imaging with you. I need to also say that I’m in no way affiliated with any of this software or hardware and nor am I receiving any form of payment for endorsing it here. I need to stress that I can only say that this works with my own set up, so there may be differences between mine and what you use.
