EQ Track purpose is to provide amateur telescope makers (ATM) with electronic board schematics and embedded software to control their telescope mount via stepping motors.

EQ Track comes in different "flavors" :

- "Basic" controls the right ascension and declination motors of an equatorial mount.

- "Go To" controls the motors of a mount in any orientation (ie. equatorial, altazimuth, alt-alt), to point and track equatorial coordinates.

Features

  • Low power
  • Highly tunable (rates, power ...)
