Re: ASCOM Device Hub or not

 

Folks, please let¡¯s not guess as this information is incorrect. Gemini.NET driver is itself a hub and requires no additional hubs unless something is misconfigured. Any number of applications can connect to Gemini.net at the same time. There¡¯s no limit or restriction on the number or bit-size of these apps.

Regards,

The hub is ASCOM 6.5SP1 Is focuser a useful tool is you connect your mount or focuser to more than one ASCOM client during a session.? Using the hub allows simultaneous to say, Stellarium PHD2, and SharpCap.? If you only wok with one client e.g. Stellarium then you do not need the ASCOM hub.

It is necessary to setup the ASCOM drivers (Gemini.net, etc.) being used by the hub from within the hub since Stellarium would only look at the hub if selected.?

I have used Stellarium as an example but the above applies to most of the ASCOM compatible planetarium Windows programs.

I hope this helps.
