Re: ASCOM Device Hub or not


 

Edward - I just want to clarify (and I think you know this) that the Gemini ASCOM driver is a hub itself.

there are some ascom drivers that aren't a hub and require a third party hub middleware kind of approach. Optec has an interesting one as well

Paul, Thanks. Since I am not much concerned about TheSkyX, I will stick to my original question about Gemini driver.? To clarify, are you saying that Gemini always runs out of process as a DCOM service regardless of what client invokes it??

By the way, though this does not invalidate anything you said, I might point out that another key functionality of POTH/ADH is that it provides middleman functionality. Of interest to me has been slaving dome rotation to the mount ( yes, my use of POTH has been a tangle of reasons). In using NINA, I am now able to let it do the dome slaving. This thread has clarified that, with Gemini, I no longer need POTH for connection sharing either ... awesome.
