Advanced use: EAGLE ASCOM drivers
The EAGLE includes ASCOM drivers in order to allow third party softwares to connect to EAGLE’s ports and sen-
sors:
•
PLL Environmental Conditions ASCOM driver
: this allows third party softwares to access to the EAGLE EYE
sensor data (only for EAGLE4), for example to save the sky darkness data in your astrophotography image (ima-
ge 53). If you have also the optional ECCO2 environmental computerised controller, you can also see air tempe-
rature, humidity and pressure.
•
EAGLE Switch ASCOM driver
: this allows third party softwares (that supports power switches control) to take
control of the EAGLE’s power and USB 2.0 ports A, B, C and D in order to automate ports management (Image
54).
EAGLE’s ASCOM drivers are already installed in your system. Updates can be found at
. EAGLE's ASCOM drivers require at least ASCOM platform 6.4 that is already installed
on your system.
