Software

Using the ISAPIC library, we wrote a basic ISAPI dynamic link library that got commands from the web. These commands were then processed by another program to control the telescope (via our very own telescope driver). Updated the telescope driver to use N. Devillard’s INI parser library. Through the use of INI files, we are able to easily change driver settings (e.g. com port information). We wrote an ASCOM telescope wrapper, which provides an interface to all the ASCOM supported telescopes. Initiated the writing psuedocode for the main application.

See the Progress to Date page for a more detailed look at the new approach.
