1.mount->Nexstar hand controller USB mini B port-> ASIAIR USB port.
Choose serial port, baud rate 9600.
2.Or you can connect via RJ-RS232 -> USB-RS232 but we did not test this.

Hi, recently I entangled the USB cable and broke 2 USB sockets of my ASIAIR. Can I buy a new Raspberry Pi 3 B and use it again?? I probably need a hardware identification, because simply changing the ASIAIR with a new Pi 3 does not work.

Katherine Tsai – :
The DSLRs can only be used as a Main Camera. When using, connect the DSLR to the ASIAIR device directly through the data cable. Before open in the app, you need to set the following options.
Shooting Mode: M
Shutter Mode: Bulb
Image Format: RAW (Only, not RAW+JPEG)
Image Quilty: L (Largest)
Additional, turn off any power-saving feature of the camera that might cause it to hibernate or sleep. Turn off Noise Reduction, Mirror Lock settings in the camera.
If you are going to do Autorun, please make sure that there is enough space on the SD card (refer to the “Estimated Space” of the ASIAIR Autorun setting interface, which should be greater than that value) and the battery is fully charged.

Can you please consider adding Solar Guiding capability. This unit works great with my equipment on Stars – if we had daytime solar tracking also this would be perfect. I do a lot of work with my Coronado Solarmax 3. The ZWO 178 MC is a nice match for it.

I am very disappointed with the zwo, I bought the asi air and a canon 2000d because the site shows the operation and compatibility. After the purchase, on the other hand, everything is fake! The 2000d canon does not work with asi air even after the update. I have contacted the assistance, they apologize for the inconvenience, admitting that they have not done the necessary tests on the functioning and compatibility. Now I find myself an asi air that I can’t use and an even more useless reflex. To take pictures I need a compatible / working cam, so another purchase due to ZWO’s negligence … They offer me a discount of 10% and wait for the next update that you don’t know when it will make the reflex cameras all compatible. Maximum Delusion! !!!
