When I start Stellarium now, a small Celestron window comes up in which I can slew and rotate the telescope by hand with four buttons. Then I set the ASCOM mode in Stellarium and set the Celestron mount accordingly. With the driver it is possible to automate domes or roll-off roof observatories of other producers e.g.: Sirius, Baader, HomeDome. For a variety of reasons, I have now also installed the Ascom platform including the corresponding Celestron drivers. In addition, the driver can control power for devices such as a observatory telescope, CCD camera, lighting and ventilation. It allows to run a fully automated observational sessions.


ScopeDome Arduino Driver is a dome driver’s software compatible with ASCOM platform 6.4 and dedicated for ScopeDome Arduino cards, cooperatating with most popular models of telescopes and sky atlases like Stellarium, CDC, TheSkyX.
