PARot is a program for ultra fast and precise polar alignment of equatorial mounts. You can easily achieve alignment accuracy better than 1 arcmin in 5 minutes of time. You take one image of the celestial pole, rotate the mount around the RA axis and take another image. The program compares the images and shows you the necessary adjustment. The adjustment process is controlled by the live-liew created by your camera. Requirements: * A computer with Windows OS (tested with WinXP x64, Win7...

...Firmware 6.x is fully supported - firmware 5.x is partially supported (all LFEP features are available but configuration is only possible by handbox). Contains drivers for telescope, focuser, camera, filter wheel, roof controller and dew heater which shares a single connection to the controller.

It provides an USB connection for the communication with the PC, it uses a stepper motor that provides higher precision, you can set the motor in full step or in microstepp mode (1, 1/2, 1/4, 1/8). The focuser include a temperature sensor. This driver has a ToolBox with which you can control manually the focuser (for example you can set the limits).

...The required hardware is documented here (http://simonbox.info/index.php/astronomy). The software enables real time conversion from (measured) alt-az to ra-dec and manages a connection to Stellarium (http://www.stellarium.org/), which allows you to view where the telescope is pointing in a virtual planetarium.
