Starry Night BlueStar Adapter for Orion Atlas EQ-G Telescopes

Wireless communication meets computerized telescope control with the introduction of the BlueStar telescope adapter. Now you can command your computerized telescope from your laptop wirelessly. The BlueStar adapter eliminates the RS-232 cable that normally connects the telescope and computer, giving you enhanced range and freedom of movement. BlueStar works with most major brands of computerized telescopes, allowing complete wireless control using the dynamic graphical interface of Starry Night Pro or similar astronomy software on your computer. The adapter plugs into the hand controller’s RS-232 port and has a range of up to 30 feet. It requires a Bluetooth-enabled computer (or an inexpensive Bluetooth module, available at computer stores) running Windows XP or Mac OS X operating system. Included are BlueStar adapter, CD-ROM with driver software, installation card, and cable for your specific telescope. Requires two AA batteries (not included).
