                         10MICRON MOUNT CONFIGURATOR
----------------------------------------------------------------------------

----------------------------------------------------------------------------
INTRODUCTION
----------------------------------------------------------------------------

The 10Micron Mount Configurator program provides an interface for
setting the relevant parameters of a 10Micron mount from an easy-to-use
interface.
It works using the 10Micron ASCOM driver, which must be installed.

----------------------------------------------------------------------------
REQUIREMENTS
----------------------------------------------------------------------------

In order to install and use the 10Micron Mount Configurator you need:

- A PC running Microsoft Windows XP SP3 / Vista / 7
- Microsoft .NET Framework version 3.5
- ASCOM Platform version 6
- A 10Micron mount connected to the PC with a serial link or through a LAN
- The 10Micron ASCOM driver

----------------------------------------------------------------------------
CHANGES
----------------------------------------------------------------------------

version 1.0.1
-------------

Correction of the Wireless LAN settings function that would give a failed 
result even after setting the network in the mount successfully.

version 1.0.0
-------------

First release.

----------------------------------------------------------------------------
USAGE
----------------------------------------------------------------------------

Start the 10Micron Mount Configurator program from Start->All Programs->
10Micron->Mount Configurator.

Select Mount->Setup driver in order to setup the ASCOM driver for
communication. Details about this procedure are documented in the 10Micron
ASCOM driver documentation.

Select Mount->Connect to connect the mount. The program loads the
parameters from the mount, showing them in the program window. Here you
can also change the value of each parameter, by editing the text or numbers
or by selecting the desired option.
When a parameter is changed, its new value will be automatically set in
the mount in a few seconds. The name label will become blue until the
value of the parameter is set.
If the background of a text box becomes red, it means that the entered
value is incorrect (for example, this happens when you enter a latitude of
92°). The incorrect value will not be transferred to the mount.

Values that are shown in gray cannot be changed.

Some parameters are shown only as a pair of buttons "Backup data" and
"Restore data". These cannot be edited directly, but can be saved in a file
on the PC and loaded again in the mount. An example is the "alignment data"
parameter.

You may also save the whole configuration of the mount in a file on the PC
using the command "Backup configuration..." under the Configuration menu.
The configuration can be restored using "Restore configuration...".

The "Network" menu allows you to configure the LAN or Wireless LAN
settings of the mount. Beware: doing this when you are connected with the
same link you are configuring will cause the connection to drop.
