What do you mean with: "using wireless Teamviewer over a USB 3 active cable"? My i5 NUC 4Gig has just been delivered and it flies compared to my two existing laptops. With USB3 that should be fine provided it is an 'active' cable and it should also offer the capacity to do more later (like wireless using TeamViewer).

I reckon going for i5 and 8Gig is a wise choice Jeff. So there are many considerations beyond "how many gigabytes".Įdited by Noah4x4, 06 January 2018 - 03:56 PM. Roelb and RAC19 have suggested a 50ah battery might be desirable for EAA sessions of any longer duration. I am using a mains adapter having had poor results with a 12v 8ah battery. But unfortunately information is currently a bit sparse.Īnother likely issue is battery power. If buying a large sensor/many pixel camera it's well worth delving into these threads to see what has worked for specific cameras and set ups. Hence the answer to the OP's question is yes but only at an EAA entry level.

But I reckon that is well worth the extra investment if there is any possibility that you will upgrade to wholly wireless and/or buy a new generation camera. Hence, as a precaution, and also in an attempt to future proof my set up for further anticipated upgrades I have hence ordered a NUC Core i5 to run my Atik Horizon and wholly wireless set up.īuying 7th generation processors (core i3 i5 i7) is probably utter overkill for most EAA set ups and will add at least £150 to the cost of the primary computing device. RAC19 has adopted a Core i3 NUC and reports that whilst that will definitely do the job with his ZWO AS1600, there is not a lot to spare.

My modest size sensor 24 megapixel DSLR only just chugs along with my Celeron PC despite my network being fast 802.11ac wireless.

I believe AstroJedi has had problems with a ZWO when running full frame mode on an Atom processor.

Atik Support have confirmed to me that an Atik Horizon will probably splutter if using a Raspberry Pi and 'Atik Air'. This first computer is then controlled remotely from a second computer also using the remote desktop (perhaps situated in the warm!) connected wirelessly over your home network. However, if you later move to a fully wireless set up and/or upgrade to a large sensor/many pixel camera you will probably need far more computing 'ooomph'.Ī typical wireless set up might embrace scope, autoguider and camera control focuser control, image data processing plus a 'remote desktop' such as TeamViewer software all running on a small computer at the scope such as an Intel NUC or Compute Stick. Slower processors are inevitably fine with modest cameras and USB cabled EAA set ups. I would also urge a bit of caution noting the observations in the previous post.
