• ASI Mount
  • Protocol description for AM3 serial control

Hello to the community.

I like to use the AM3 as an antenna positionner for a small microwave antenna. The software will be written by myself. I tried serial commands from the Meave / LX200 protocol to control the mount.Some commands are working fine (e.g. :GA# and :GZ# for reading altitude and azimuth) while other commands doesn't seem to work (set commands for target setting and movement).

Where can I find a document with the protocol description / syntax for the AM3?
I'm specially interested in the commands for moving to a target and for setting a relative reference point.
All answers are very appreciated :-)

I'm still curious, if someone tried to access the AM3 directly via USB. Any information is warmly welcome!
