Description

This is a group dedicated to the development and distribution of a fully featured and low cost Open Observatory Control System (OOCS). The goal of this open source project is to build upon the existing work of various hobbyists and make it possible for others to create fully robotic and/or automated observatories without spending thousands of dollars on currently available systems. The ultimate goal of the project to establish an ASCOM compliant driver set for all major OOCS functions.

We will also focus on home built, low cost sensors, such as cloud, rain, and wind sensors that can be built separately, or integrated into the fully featured control system.

We welcome all contributions, experimenters, and ideas!!

Re: Environement Module
Robert Please make sure C10 is not on the environment module. It will keep the Z8 from seeing the reset which is required to program it. This was a design
