Hi

I noticed that you have a python file for Maxdomeii.py at the root level. Is this used to connect into Ascom?

Where you able to interface your arduino boards into ascom?

Thank you in advance.

Hi, The python script you mentioned is only for testing the board by sending some commands. I didn't test the setup under ASCOM (I don't have any windows computer around), but it should work, because the protocol is the one used by the original Maxdome II.
