AUTOSTAR RS232 COMMAND PROTOCOL
The Autostar RS232 Control Protocol (ASRCP) is an Android Application and a sister app to the ASIIE that utilizes the Meade Autostar Serial Protocol to control various Meade Telescopes. Users of the App must purchase a WIFI Kit from the developer which consists of the WIFI Adapter and a custom cable that plugs into the RS232 port of the mount or Handheld device.
The App and kit will enable the user to remotely (using WIFI) control their respective telescope as if they are using the Hand controller. Due to the various Telescope models and Serial Port implementation, we are working on providing a Custom Cable solution that can be easily adapted by the user to match their respective Meade telescope.
The App structure is complete and we are in testing & debugging phase. We are looking for a limited number of users (you are still required to purchase the kit) that own a different model of Meade telescope than the two we are testing on, that utilize the Autostar Serial Protocol. We are conducting our testing on a 14″ LX200GPS and ETX-125. Once testing and development is complete then we will open it to the general public.
Currently, the app is focused on controlling the telescope without any added features. In time and upon user’s requests and feedback, we can incorporate some of the same functionality that we had provided in the ASIIE app.
