Hi Folks, 
Does the ASCOM TheSkyX plugin still need to be installed when using the latest versions of APCC Pro and TheSkyX?
Thanks,
Don


 

Hi Don

>>>ASCOM TheSkyX plugin

not sure which plugin you are referring to?

if you are connecting to the mount from within TSX then yes. You need to connect to the mount via ASCOM.

Hi Brian, 
Thanks for the reply. I saw a reference to it in a Screencast.com video titled Using TheSkyX with The AP V2 Driver, mentioned on the AP ASCOM V2 Driver page.  I’ve got the feeling it may be an old video.
Thanks,
Don


 

Ah got it

Yes, you want to use the ASCOM V2 driver from inside of TheSkyX via ascom (and not the TSX built-in drivers). The word "plugin" threw me a little :)
