Hi,

I am new to this forum. I recently bought a used Star Adventurer (without Wifi) to do astrophotography with my Canon EOS RP. I have been looking at software(s) which will help my workflow and Ekos caught my attention.

I have a few quick questions which I'm sure might have been addressed before. I have been reading some of the forum topics but I do not have a clear picture. So I thought I'd ask here.

Q1) Can I connect the Star Adventurer to Ekos using a mini USB to USB cable? Will this allow me to do rotate in RA? If yes, then can someone provide details? What other things can I do using this connection?

Q2) Can I control my Canon RP in Ekos? Do I need to install supporting softwares?

Q3) Can I do a polar alignment in Ekos when Polaris is not visible? If yes, then how do I do it? I will be using a Canon EOS RP as the imaging device.

Thanks for your time and apologies if my questions have been already answered.

Regards
Suman
