Attaching ZWO electronic focusser

#1

Post by johnycas »

I have two different focussers. The iOPTRON works (there is a driver listed for it) bu there is no driver listed for the ZWO. Any way to use the ZWO with SharpCap?

Hi,

yes, you need to install two things to get it to work

1) ASCOM Platform (you probably already have this) - https://ascom-standards.org/Downloads/Index.htm

2) ZWO Ascom drivers - https://www.zwoastro.com/software/ascom-driver/ (make sure you select focusers from the list of things when installing this)

Once you have both installed, reboot and re-run SharpCap and you should see the option for your ZWO focuser.

cheers,

Robin
