ScopeDome 3M v3 observatory

ScopeDome rotation dome motor for 3M

ScopeDome rotation dome motor for 3M allows remote rotation of the of the 3M dome. For operation, it requires the Arduino Card.

ScopeDome shutter motor for 3M

ScopeDome shutter motor for 3M allows remote control of the opening or closing of the 3M dome shutter. For operation, it requires the Arduino Card.

ScopeDome Arduino Card ver. 1.3

This module is designed to control the astronomical observatory and it uses an open source communication protocol. You can control the ScopeDome Arduino Card via Ethernet or USB and it's powered by an external power supply. Two modules can be connected via BlueTooth in Master and Slave modes: the Master module controls the dome's rotation, the Slave module controls the dome's shutter. ScopeDome Arduino Card ver. 1.3 offers also emergency closing of the dome in case of power failure, rain, clouds, and low UPS battery voltage. ScopeDome Arduino Driver comes with an ASCOM driver compatible with ASCOM platform 6.4 to let you control ScopeDome also with the most popular astrophotography softwares.

ScopeDome Plug & Play option for 3M

The Plug & Play option for ScopeDome 3M is designed for motorized versions of the 3 meter diameter (3M) ScopeDome domes. This accessory allows a quick and immediate wiring of all cables and electrical parts: in this way the realization of the entire dome is made much simpler. For this reason we recommend it to anyone who wants to motorize the ScopeDome dome or want to purchase a motorized ScopeDome dome.

ScopeDome Cloud and Rain sensor

The ScopeDome Cloud Sensor is a cloud and rain sensor based on sky temperature measurement, dedicated to work with the ScopeDome Arduino card. It allows for the automatic closing of the dome in case of rain or cloud cover. The built-in sensor heating system prevents false alarms caused by dew.

Do you want to automate and remotely control your ScopeDome and telescope with camera and accessories? Connect the EAGLE to the ScopeDome (via USB or ethernet) and you will be able to control the entire observatory with an handy WiFi connection or with ethernet. Thanks to the EAGLE you will be able to distribute power to all 12V devices on the telescope while dome requires an external power source.
