This guide describes how to control a Celestron telescope mount using the Celestron NexRemote hand controller (serial port based only) software and ASCOM drivers over Bluetooth. This guide is based on a Celestron telescope GT Mount (similar to SLT mount) with NexStar+ hand control (serial port based only). Communication is confirmed with Cartes du Ciel which uses ASCOM drivers. Tested on Windows 7 64-bit. NOTICE: If you don't require using the NexRemote software then an easier way of controlling your telescope is described here: http://www.usconverters.com/controlling-telescope-PC-Bluetooth-ASCOM |
