EAGLE first use: remote control from a Windows computer

This guide shows how to properly set remote control of your EAGLE from a computer with Windows operative system. This guide has been written by using a Windows 10 Home and Microsoft Remote Desktop client 10.1.1215.0 and it has been tested also with a computer running Windows 10 Pro. From the Microsoft Store of your computer, please search and install the “Microsoft Remote Desktop” app. If you do not know how to install the app from the Microsoft Store, please read the manual of your computer. Thanks to the remote control app, you have EAGLE with all your software on your device screen. Start the “Microsoft Remote Desktop” app. Click the + button (top-right), then select “Desktop”.

Make a double click on the connection and  and you’ll see on your device’s desktop EAGLE. Now you are ready to use the software you prefer to control your telescope. NOTE: You can also use another Remote Desktop client, the Parallels Client (you can download from here https://www.parallels.com/products/ras/capabilities/rdp-client/). This client has to be set as the Microsoft one, the only difference is that this will ask also the Port number, please set it to 3389.
