Chuck: Please explain. I know how to connect a vbasic program to TheSky or CCDsoft, but I'm not sure what ASCOM driver you are talking about. Is there any...
Chris: My question still remains. I will write my own code to automate the roof closure. I appreciated the fact that other software exists to accomplish this...
Hi Bob, I sent you the basics for communicating. That coupled with the command protocols listing in the ELK docs I think Chris sent to you is all you need....
Bob, Also, check out the ASCOM Dome driver's exposed methods/properties that you can access via scripts by looking in your 'Start/All Programs/ASCOM...
Chuck: I really appreciate your information and patience. Here is my current sticking point. I have written a vbasic program using the Client/Server Winsock...
Odd, I have not encountered any issues using port 2101 unless a router or other firewalls were blocking it. Enjoy your vacation, we will sort things out when...
Fellow RoRos: I am inexorably moving forward with the implementation of my M1 in my roll off roof observatory. I am writing my own visual basic code to...
The docs have a code example. Basically, the format is the ASCII characters you want to send preceded by the length of the string including the 2 characters...
Chuck: I'm using visual basic 6. The code example in the docs is in C and apparently C has the ability to directly convert hex to binary. Here is the...

I purchased a Bare Bones Kit last winter but have since decided to handle remote operations of my observatory in a different fashion. Consequently I am...
Chuck: Thank you for your help in resolving this programming problem. Your help is greatly appreicated. Your code snippet works to generate the correct M1...
Actually, the correct formatted CRC for that string is 0806rr00EE the leading 08 is the length. Regards, Chuck Faranda http://ccdastro.com ... From: Bob...
Does anyone know if there is any way to create a temperature log by polling the temperature periodically and writing it to a file on the hard drive? How could...
Jim: Sure...do you have access to visual basic. An executable program can be written that will connect with the M1 via Winsock to the unsecured port on the...
Hmmm...looks like I need to brush back up on my software skills to do that. Am not uncomfortable with writing the logging code it's connecting via Winsock to...
Fellow RoRos: After much work, I have been able to successfully install, configure and write vbasic code for the M1OASYS. Despite the website claim of a...
Glad to hear ya got your code working Bob.... I appreciate the comments and I agree we need to update the doc, a new version is in the works and we will take...
Great news Bob! I'm glad I could help. Drop me a note any time if you need anything. Regards, Chuck Faranda http://ccdastro.com ... From: "Bob Gillard"...
Hi Bob, I desperately need to learn how to send commands to my M1 from my computer for startup sequences of my UPB equipment. Any code examples would be...
Chris: I have attached a vbasic project with working code which demonstates how computer connects with the M1 and how varible commands are sent to the M1 in...
Chris: Because of my day job I worked on the installation on and off. I would estimate that it took about 8 hours. Because of my lack of experience in the...
Can you elaborate on this telescope position sensor? How does it work and where can it be found online? I was going to use an IR sensor, but I would rather...
Chris: Unfortunately, my Telescope Sensor......is a IR sensor. But no problem, just wire the IR sensor's Transmitter into one of the Outputs e.g. Output 12...
Bob, Well at least I don't need to buy another sensor. Thanks for explaining. Chris A. From: m1oasys@yahoogroups.com [mailto:m1oasys@yahoogroups.com] On Behalf...
Chris: Here is expamples working code for computer M1 interface. I hope it helps....sorry about the delay or if I have already sent you this code. Private Sub...
