It should be under Ports (COM & LPT) - click on the arrow to the left to expand and you should see something like "Prolific USB-to-Serial Comm Port (COM4)".ģ) The COM4 bit tells you what to put into Stellarium The one complaint I would have is that sometimes Stellarium will allow you connect and stop mount control from the configuration dialogue box when in reality the Serial to USB and / or COM port configuration is not correct (and therefore scope control won't actually work).ġ) Are you sure your serial to USB interface is compatible with Windows 7?Ģ) Are you able to see the serial to USB interface in Device Manager? (in Win 7 go to Control Panel -> Hardware and Sound -> Device Manager).
but so long as the Serial to USB interface is working correctly and the right COM port has been identified there is no reason why Stellarium can't be used to control the mount. Much more functional for scope control although it does require ASCOM drivers. At the risk of completely derailing your thread, I would forget stellarium for scope control.
