Good explanation. 👍🏼
Thank you!
Great detailed guide, thank you!
Thank you for watching!
Amy do you have a video and or if you can create one, start to finish CWPI two star alignment and then All star Polar Alignment many thanks ahead. Struggling here with alignment.
Hi Amy,
Good tutorial.
I use CPWI a lot. For me, to get the focuser to work in NINA, I must connect the focuser to the mount via the ST4 cable from the focuser to the AUX port on the mount. Why, I don't know. With the Celestron stand-alone Focuser Utility, it will work with just the USB connection.
I am considering getting that Celestron power hub. I did not know it would control standard dew straps. That's good to know.
The hub works well. The inside fan powers up immediately when you add power to the device. The hub stays cool at all times unlike others that get hot. Life is easier with a Celestron mount and their focuser. For me, I have the sky watcher mount and I needed a special cable to get the aux ports power. Celestron will be selling these soon. My connection video I show this. I am happy with the dew controller 4x. Thank you so much for watching and your support.
Hi Amy, great built. Can you please show how the Eye on the Eagle works, how you can utilize the meassurements and how it looks in NINA? thanks.
As soon as I learn I will share it. I had my eye on backwards based on the video. I have since moved it to the front.
Hi Amy just subbed to your channel. Being a total and I mean a total newbie to this hobby, your tutorials are spot on. thank you! I have some of this equipment on my "Wish List". Does that cool looking software to monitor the dew shields come with the 2 port variant? Thank you
They have a 2 port controller. But the 4 port controller has the bonus of power and usb ports. Very helpful
can someone link to the previous video that shows how to wire all this up. I am lost. could not find part 1 .
