screenshot of N.I.N.A. imaging software.
ASCOM ALPACA
ASCOM Alpaca outshines classic ASCOM drivers with its platform independence, modern web standards,
streamlined installation, remote control capabilities, extensibility, and open-source options. This ensures superior
compatibility and user-friendly performance, making it the preferred choice for advanced astronomy applications.
FocusCube 3 comes equipped with an integrated web server that seamlessly communicates with Alpaca clients
natively. This integration enhances the user experience by providing easy access to telescope focus control through
ASCOM Alpaca but also monitoring from any device with a web browser such as a smartphone.
To use ASCOM Alpaca make sure that the FocusCube v3 is connected to your WiFi network or you use its hotspot
feature and you are connected to it.
This is a one-off action and it is required to discover FocusCube v3 and automatically create the appropriate
ASCOM Alpaca driver.
To do that:
Open ASCOM Diagnostics (you should have this software once you install ASCOM)
