Small and inexpensive but minimal operating information
The iMate is a tiny INDI telescope control box and was easily accommodated on my telescope with my guide scope, a finder scope, and a red dot finder. The Kstar and Ekos apps are included in the iMate but little instruction are provided for their operation. Fortunately, YouTube videos are plentiful. However, I prefer Stallarium and Sharpcap to control my mount and cameras. So far, I have not determined how to connect my two cameras and my iPolar to my computer wirelessly through the iMate. I have not found any information on this aspect of the use of the iMate. Currently, I find that the iMate is mainly useful as a hub to provide power and usb connections.
