Guiding Equipment

updated: 2021-08-26

Guider Hardware are specialized small standalone computer controllers with appropriate interfaces for cameras, guider cameras, mounts and are used to control the capturing of frames and the guiding (tracking). Guider HW are a replacement for laptops other other computer-equipment and quite helpful if you are away from any electrical supply and have to use batteries or accumulators instead. 


The a reduced functionality compared to Windows based software like PHP2 plus Sequence Generator Pro, but are easier to handle and can deliver quite good results.


Here are two guider HW examples, I personally only tested (and still use) the ZWO ASIAIR Pro solution because it better fitted my requirements.
