Description
AstroLink 4 Pi device is a standalone astrophotography setup controller based on Raspberry Pi 4 or 5. Connect to a 12V DC power supply, attach your setup peripherals, and you are ready to work! AstroLink 4 Pi has several modules already inside, so you do not need additional controllers: the focusing motor controller is there, so you can connect your own or one of our motors. DC power switch to distribute 12V power to your equipment is present. Regulated outputs for dew heaters are also already there. Additional regulated voltage output to power DSLR or USB hub is available. The measurements of voltages, current, power, and energy consumed are available in the INDI driver panel. Last but not least, the selection of sensors can be connected to AstroLink 4 Pi, which includes temperature/humidity, sky temperature/cloud coverage, and sky brightness sensors.
AstroLink 4 Pi works under the control of the StellarMate OS, AstroArch, astroberry, or AstroPi3, and a dedicated INDI driver is used to cover all functionalities you need.
