Switching between S30 and S50 in app

HeidsG

Hello, are there plans to make it easier/possible to switch between the S30 and S50 in one instance of the app? Currently two devices need to be used if both scopes are running. I love having both scopes running and this would make things a lot easier.

Thank you in advance!

HeidsG You manage them both on a single device, at least using iOS assuming you use the built in wifi network on each scope. Simply go to iOS WIFI menu and select either the S50 or S30 wifi network. Back to the app and it will have switched scopes. This works for me, YMMV

There is no such plan at the moment, but relevant suggestions have been fed back.

Support@Seestar Interesting position. There is a You Tube video of the ZWO founder being interviewed and he clearly stated managing Seestars on a single device was being fixed/enabled. I'll find the youtube video.

I have both an S30 and an S50 and use Android tablets to control them. While it is not currently possible to switch between them inside the app, it can be done externally.

First, connect to your S30 and leave the app running. Next, turn on your S50 and wait for 'ready to connect', then go to the Connections section of your phone or tablet. It will show that you are currently connected to the S30. The S50 should appear in the list of available networks. Choose the S50 and wait for it to connect. Finally, return to the app which will now show connected to the S50.

It's a bit cumbersome, but it does work.
