After cooling devices connected to the 12V power supply, the temperature control circuit will be activated. You can control
the CMOS temperature by adjusting the settings in the figure below. Basically, you can control the temperature of CMOS by
either adjusting “Cooler Power” or clicking “Auto” and setting “Target Temperature”. You can also see the CMOS
temperature at the lower-left corner of the software window.
ASCOM supported software (e.g. MDL)
With ASCOM drivers, you can use the device with many software packages that support the ASCOM standard. We will use
Maxim DL below as an example, but a similar procedure is used for The SkyX and other software packages supporting
ASCOM.
First make sure you have not only loaded the ASCOM drivers but that you have also downloaded and installed the ASCOM
platform from ASCOM. After both the drivers and platform are installed, start MAXIMDL. Follow the instructions shown
below to finish the setup. Then Click Connect in and enter the software.
