I have a Meade RCX400 telescope. My iPhone 6s recognizes SkyWire, but SkySafari Pro doesn't offer the RCX400 as a choice in its lists of telescopes to control. Which, if any, of the available choices (Meade LX200 GPS, Meade LX400, etc.) should work with an RCX400, or is the SkyWire (and/or SkySafari) not compatible with the RCX400? If the latter, could Simulation Curriculum add the RCX400 to its list of supported telescopes? The RCX400 uses an Autostar II controller, so it shouldn't be impossible to connect to it. Thanks!

Bill Tschumy Rick,
Yes, SkyWire should work with your mount. It is hard to keep up with all the mounts coming out and we can't really list every mount. However the RCX should use the same command set as the MEADE_LX400_ACF. I agree we should update the titles.

Rick Fienberg Thanks, Bill. I'll try that next time I'm at my observatory (in a couple of weeks, since I'm traveling in the meantime).
