Are there any plans to support wanderbox or pegasus power boxes?

Hi,

not straight away, but I have had a couple of other requests to support ASCOM switches, so every request helps give the feature a bit more priority.

thanks,

Robin

Another request for Pegasus support. My dew heaters are controlled by Pegasus so it would be great to start, set the output, and shut the power off as part of my sequence.

Hi,

actually this one is done now in SharpCap 4.1 - there is support for ASCOM switches (it's right at the bottom of the hardware settings, under the rotator section). I have the Pegasus box and it seems to work fine. Should work OK with the Wanderer too as long as their ASCOM driver is installed.

cheers,

Robin
