Avalon StarGo Stand Alone Controler WiFi (67589)

The StarGO is a computerized GoTo Control System powered by stepper motor technology, designed for managing both Alt-Azimuthal and Equatorial mounts. While primarily created for Avalon Instruments' M-zero, M-uno, and Linear mounts, its programmable gear ratio and compatibility with special motor kits make it adaptable for other mount brands. Intuitive and versatile, the StarGO system is ideal for both visual observation and advanced astrophotography.

The StarGO system offers three main modes of operation:
Simple Tracker: Operates without additional devices. Simply connect the power, and it tracks in both Equatorial and Alt/Az modes.
Wireless GoTo System: Compatible with SkySafari for use with smartphones or tablets. This mode includes a 24-star pointing model and is ideal for visual observation.
Full GoTo System Mount Controller: Connects to a PC via ASCOM drivers for full control through popular astronomical software such as Maxim, TheSkyX, PhD2, SGP, and Carte du Ciel. This mode is recommended for astrophotography, offering features like home position, GoTo, park/unpark, autoguiding, focus control, and more.
 
The StarGO system has been tested successfully on Windows 7/8/10 (via ASCOM Driver) and OS X (LX200 classic). Although designed mainly for Avalon mounts, it can be adapted to other brands thanks to its programmable gear ratio and motor kit compatibility.
