AutoStar II compatible

[abetoret]

Hi scriptorron,

Finally, I've made a new fork of the project.

https://github.com/abetoret/AutoStarII_Remote

These adaptations make the application compatible with Meade AutoStar II.

Regards.

Hello abetoret,

Looks really cool what you did! Funny that both AutoStar versions have different commands for basic keys (scroll-up, scroll-down, goto). I am thinking about merging both in a single application. But there are 2 concerns:

1. Will a combined application be useful for the user? It is certainly very seldom that someone has both AutoStar II and AutoStar #497.
2. Mere serious: I do not have a AutoStar II and will not be able to support it. All changes I do for AutoStar II will be untested and potentially buggy.

Maybe it is better when we leave it separate for now.

Best Regards

Hi,

Don't worry, I can test your developments with AutoStar II. But I think it is very rare to have both controllers.

We can collaborate with the developments. It would be interesting to have a configuration file to save the ASCOM driver selected, the color of the LCD, etc. I intend to develop this functionality.

I will keep you updated.

Regards.
