♦ Standalone Autoguider Funktion in Kombination mit einer passenden Kamera wie der ASI120Mini - ideal für alle Astrofotografen mit DSLR, kein Computer im Feld mehr nötig

♦ Bildvorschau und Scharfstellhilfe in Realzeit für einfaches und präzises Scharfstellen

♦ Debayer für alle ASI Color Astrokameras mit Bildbearbeitung

♦ Nahezu alle parallaktischen Montierungen werden unterstützt, z. B. Skywatcher oder iOptron

♦ ASIAIR arbeitet mit iOS und Android Betriebssystemen zusammen

♦ Einfach zu bedienende Interfaces mit übersichtlicher Oberfläche

♦ ASIAIR unterstützt auch ausgewählte DSLR Kameras und spiegellose Systemkameras


 

ZWO ASIAIR Mini - noch nie war Astrofotografie so einfach!

ASIAIR Mini ist ein intelligenter WiFi-Controller für alle Anwendungen der Astrofotografie. Er ersetzt einen Laptop oder auch einen teuren Stand-Alone-Autoguider. Auch der Kabelsalat am Teleskop gehört der Vergangenheit an. Sie brauchen nur mehr Ihr Smartphone oder ein Tablet, welches Sie mit dem ASIAIR-WiFi verbinden. Die Anwendungsbereiche sind vielfältig:

♦ Ansteuerung aller ZWO ASI USB-3.0-Kameras (außer ASI461) - gekühlte Kameras benötigen aber eine zusätzliche Stromversorgung
♦ Autoguiding in Kombination mit einer ZWO MINI Kamera, z.B. mit der ASI120 Mini
♦ Ansteuerung von ausgewählten Montierungen, z.B. von Skywatcher oder iOptron
♦ Ansteuerung von ausgewählten DSLR- und spiegellosen Systemkameras
♦ Autofokussierung mit dem ZWO EAF Motorfokus
♦ Debayer Funktion für ZWO-Colorkameras
♦ Bildvorschau
♦ Einnordungsroutine
♦ Planeten- und Mondvideoaufnahmen
♦ Live Stacking (außer ASI6200 und ASI461)
♦ und vieles mehr!

ASIAIR Mini is the third generation of ASIAIR

ASIAIR is continuously developed further by ZWO and also the third generation convinces, besides the well-known reliability, by interesting features:
♦ Built-in WiFi antenna, which greatly amplifies the signal and extends the range;
♦ USB-C port, this allows you to connect the ASIAIR Mini directly to your computer to transfer the data.
♦ ASIAIR Mini is now even more compact and lighter. The body is made of aluminum and CNC-machined, which makes the device even more robust and durable.
♦ Even better operational reliability - ASIAIR OS runs on eMMC memory. A new "Auto Recovery Mode" feature allows the system to automatically detect errors and restore itself.

Accurate focusing: After coarse focusing is completed, select a star, then accurate focusing can be done by curves such as brightness and HFD. It can also be done with ZWO EAF by remote control.





Polar alignment: Based on the powerful plate-solving function, you can complete the arc-second alignment of the polar axis within a few minutes.





Accurate GoTo: With the rich celestial object database, accurate GoTo can be achieved after selecting the object.




Stable guiding: Independent and stable tracking control can be achieved without the PC.





Preview mode: You can see the image of the object directly under ´Preview´.





Autorun: Set the object and configure the schedule, ASIAIR will run the image sequence automatically.





Live stacking: You can see the stacked image (lower noise with calibration shots) of the object directly during capturing.

Supported DSLR and mirrorless cameras

ASIAIR Mini is a smart WiFi device that allows you to control DSLR and mirrorless cameras. A listing of compatible DSLR and mirrorless cameras can be found here.

Astrocameras from other manufacturers, such as QHY, are not controlled by ASIAIR.
 

Supported Mounts

ZWO has also worked closely with major manufacturers to ensure compatibility of iOptron, Vixen, Rainbow, Avalon, Explore Scientific and other models (including some new models). For now, the ASIAIR PRO supports hundreds of equatorial mounts from more than 20 manufacturers worldwide. All mounts and cameras supported by the previous version（ASIAIR) will also work with the ASIAIR PRO, ASIAIR PLUS, and ASIAIR Mini.]

Manuals can be found on ZWO´s manuals page.

Drivers can be found on ZWO´s driver page.


{Connecting ASIAIR to Skywatcher Goto mounts}]
In principle, all Skywatcher Goto mounts can be connected to the ASIAIR system.

[*1. Older Goto systems without USB connection
- Plug the RS-232 cable supplied with the mount into the corresponding socket of the Synscan handbox, connect it with the ZWO USB-RS232 converter cable and plug it into the USB socket of the ASIAIR.

- Switch on mount and ASIAIR, select "Synscan" as mount in the ASIAIR app.






Note: The ASIAIR Mini has no RS-232 adapter cable included. Here then pos. 1 is omitted.


2. Skywatcher Synscan mounts with USB connection on the handbox or the mount itself (e.g. newer EQ6-R and EQ8)

- These can be connected directly to the ASIAIR with a USB 2 cable.






3. Connection via EQMOD

With a suitable EQMOD cable, the mount can also be connected directly, bypassing the Synscan handbox, to as ASIAIR. One advantage of this method is that the basic alignment to stars ("alignment") can be bypassed and you can go directly to plate solving.

Suitable cables:
EQDIRUSBEQ5, EQDIR-USB-RJ and HT004 for EQ3, EQ5, HEQ5, AZ-EQ5, EQ6-R, AZ-EQ6, EQ8
EQDIRUSBEQ6, EQDIR-USB-DB9 and HT005 for EQ6 Synscan / Syntrek, Orion Atlas






4. Connection via WiFi/WLAN

Skywatcher mounts with integrated WLAN module or the separately available 20318 WLAN module (the latter fits all Skywatcher Goto mounts) can be directly connected to the ASIAIR without any cables.

Please note the additional hints ZWO has summarized in this manual:

WiFI connection.
 

Connecting ASIAIR to other Goto mounts

In principle, all goto mounts that support the INDI protocol can be connected to the ASIAIR. A list of these mounts can be found here:

Mounts

Please note that depending on the mount, special (RS232) adapter cables may be necessary, which we unfortunately do not have in our program. These can be obtained from the manufacturer or can be made with appropriate knowledge.

For modern mounts with USB or WLAN the connection is done as described above under Skywatcher, you may have to download the drivers linked in the indilib additionally.
