Lunatico AAG CloudWatcher Solo (48667)

The Solo is a compact computer from Lunático, specifically designed to optimize the performance of the Lunatico AAG CloudWatcher cloud detector. It provides continuous, 24/7 control and monitoring of your cloud detector, making it ideal for remote observatories. With its very low power consumption—less than 2 watts—the Solo is energy efficient and can be powered directly from your existing CloudWatcher power supply. The integrated web server allows you to access real-time weather data from your observatory anywhere in the world.

Key benefits:

• Extremely low power requirements, perfect for remote installations

• Integrated web server for global access to observatory weather data

• Continuous monitoring extends the life of your CloudWatcher cloud detector

• Uses the same power supply as your current CloudWatcher

• Data is available to any computer on the same network, supporting integration with existing session control and automation software

• Eliminates the need for USB/Serial adapters and drivers by using its own serial port and network publishing

Installation steps:

• Disconnect the AAG’s RS232 from your PC and connect it to the Solo

• Remove power from the AAG CloudWatcher and use the same cable to power the Solo

• Use the included male-to-male cable to connect the Solo to the AAG CloudWatcher

• Connect the Solo to your network with a standard RJ45 cable (not supplied)

Note:
The Solo should be installed indoors, as it is not designed to withstand outdoor conditions like the CloudWatcher itself.
