ECCO is the Environmental Computerized Controller for the EAGLE that can be used also to support a compact guide telescope, by adding the “Guide scope support for ECCO” (ECCOSUP) or the “Guide rings support plate for ECCO” (ECCOSUP-PL). Since the ECCO can be installed on a standard Vixen type finder…
Choosing the correct battery for a complete telescope is critical since, usually, astrophotography setups are composed by many devices that need to be powered all night long. And when you use an EAGLE-powered telescope, all the devices (cameras, mount, focuser, rotator, etc) are connected to the power out ports of…
Do you want to replace your telescope stock focuser with ESATTO? Our robotic focuser is available in different models offering the free aperture, weight load capacity and draw tube travel you need for your telescope and camera. After you choose what version of ESATTO you want to use, the first…
ECCO2 is provided also with the “PLL Observing Conditions” ASCOM driver that allows you to connect it to third party astrophotography softwares. This way you will be able not only to see temperature, humidity and pressure data in the EAGLE Manager but also to import environmental data in your preferred astrophotography…
This issue may be caused by a driver conflict that occurs when a newly installed device uses the same driver that EAGLE relies on to control its internal board with power and USB ports. In some cases, the problem may also arise from an incomplete or faulty Windows Update. As…
If you can connect and control ARCO rotator but, when you command a rotation movement (also during calibration) ARCO is not moving and/or you hear a clicking sound, this could be due to 2 factors: 12V power is missing or worm gear adjustment is needed. In this article we see…
