Nexremote Telescope Control Software For Mac
ScopeCom: The only ( low Cost) commercially available dedicated* WiFI Module that supports Android and Apple IOS
- Unlike currently available WiFi and Bluetooth telescope control solutions, the ScopeCOM module is compatible for use with both Apple and Android portable Smartphones and Tablets.
- Most Android Smartphones and Tablets are unable to utilize the WiFi Ad Hoc mode to establish a direct WiFi connection to a telescope mount. Similarly, Apple iPhone and iPad devices do not support the Bluetooth SPP service which eliminates use of Bluetooth devices supporting serial data connections for these devices. The ScopeCOM product eliminates these device limitations and provides serial data communications over a WiFi network supporting both Apple and Android portable devices. The ScopeCOM WiFi adapter also supports WiFi connections using MAC and Windows computers.
- The ScopeCOM -II module is powered by two AAA 1000 mAh Ni-MH rechargeable batteries. A charging unit is included . Typical charge will last about 6 hours.
Starry Night 7 - Professional Astronomy Telescope Control Software for Mac/PC is a software that uses OpenGL and Quick Time to show a photo realistic night sky. It also provides telescope control. Updates for this software are available at their website, but newer versions allow updates through an application installed with the program. NSOL telescope control software is included to enable basic control of the scope using your computer, and “The Sky” astronomy software disk is a quality software planetarium for use on your computer or laptop. Optional accessories include the RS-232 cable and NexRemote telescope control software for advanced control.

First review:
Tony, I’ve been delighted with my new TakCom. I’ve been using it with my EM-400 Temma II M mount and SkySafari 4. The convenience of driving my mount with just my phone or iPad is terrific!
Many thanks!…Neil

Received the ScopeCom and also got the cable from my friend, what luck:-)
Read all the paper work and installed it in the Starmaster checked the settings and fired it up.
Did a rough alignment on the scope , started up sky Safari and it connected right away.
Went thru a bunch of gotos and it seems to work great.
