NEXUS II
Description
Control your mount wirelessly from a Phone, Tablet or PC
The NEXUS II box is placed on the magnetic holder on the counterweight arm. One short cable connects it to the mount head. The placement and the quality of this adapter give you a very stable Wi-Fi connection with a good range.
With this solution, you can control the mount from your iPhone, Android or Tablet using the Sky Safari App. Just click on the star map to have the mount go to the selected target. The mount handpad can be used simultaneously to slew the mount or make gotos.
