Appendix D. Computer Control an AZMP Mount

The AZ Mount Pro mount can be controlled by a SmartPhone, a tablet or a computer. It is supported by
two types of computer connections:



Connect to a computer via RS232 serial port. An optional RS232 to USB adapter (iOptron

part #8435) is needed if your computer does not have a serial port, like most of the laptops
on the market today. Follow the adapter instructions to install the adapter driver. The mount
can be controlled via ASCOM protocol (Windows OS), or directly by some software, such as
Sky Safari (Mac OS)



Connect wirelessly via built-in Wi-Fi connection. The mount can be controlled via ASCOM

protocol (Windows OS), SmartPhone/tablet and Mac OS wirelessly (with supported
software, such as Sky Safari.

To control the mount via ASCOM protocol, you need:

1. Download and install the latest ASCOM Platform, currently 6.1 SP1, from

http://www.ascom-

standards.org/

. Make sure your PC meets the software requirement. For 6.1 SP1, Windows

XP users should install .NET Framework 4 (not the Client Profile). Windows Vista and
Windows 7 users should install .NET Framework 4.5.2. Windows 8 and 8.1 users do not
need install any additional components.

2. Download and install the latest iOptron ASCOM drive for AZMP from iOptron website.
3. Planetarium software that supports ASCOM protocol. Follow software instructions to select

the iOptron Telescope.

Please refer to iOptron website,
