Hello,
I have an intelliscope Orion with my dobson XX12i. I would like communicate with skysafari on android tablet.
For that i will purchase rs232 cable to USB.
Can you tell me if we can make it work with skysafari like that without wifi or bluetooth ?
Thank you.
Alexandre,
Using Android either WiFi or bluetooth is required.
Thanks!
I was able to get my Ioptron mount to work wirelessly with Bluetooth and Android. You need a proper Rs233 cable for your scope and a Bluetooth adapter. I used this. https://www.iogear.com/product/GBC232A/. I had some trouble getting the Iogear initialized, You will need a PC to do that. But once you had it set up, it works pretty well. I can't speak for how well the Orion scope will work with it, but if it a rs232 / serial connection it seems like it would work.
