The link for the driver is http://www.astronomy.hu/pulsar.htm you will found it at the bottom of the page.

You will need Pulsar firmware 2.66aR for the driver to work correctly.

The ASCOM driver gives you the ability to Stop and Start tracking and Park and UnPark the mount you can also use PemPro to directly upload your PEC data to the Pulsar. The setup file contains a readme.txt file. This will give you more information about the driver.

Kind Regards

Paul,

I tried the ASCOM driver last night with PEMPRO.
Worked great!
Polar aligned the mount within a few arcsecs of North on both axes.
Then ran a check to see what the periodic error was like.:

Needless to say, I'm quite happy with that!

Next step nopw will be to see how to train the PEC on the mount - must have a read of the manual tonight.

Michael.
