Making the Autoguiding Connection

Like all SBIG cameras, the STXL has an Autoguider port that can be connected to your

Telescope. Use the supplied 6-pin phone-jack based Autoguider Cable to connect the

STXL to your Telescope.

2.4. Third Party Software

The STXL is compatible with many third party Astronomical Software packages. Several

packages offer control of the STXL and many others offer Image Processing of FITS Format

Images acquired with the STXL. This section describes several of those packages.

CCDSoft

a Planetarium program called
