Driver Downloads This is where you can get drivers for your astronomy instruments and devices. The links along the left side lead to the drivers for each device type. Note: Do not rename downloaded drivers, this may defeat backward compatibility features and might prevent your driver from installing. If you receive a message that 'Platform 5 is required' then please check carefully that your setup filename is indentical to the one on the web site. Don't be tempted to downgrade your Platform install to fix this type of issue, please refer to the for advice or post a message on ASCOM-Talk. If you don't find a driver for your device here, contact the manufacturer and inquire about availability of a driver.

Plug-in Downloads This is where you can get the plug-ins that allow programs such as TheSky and SkyMap Pro to connect to ASCOM Drivers. Note that most programs that use astronomical devices already use ASCOM drivers and thus need no plug-ins. Additional Downloads These components are not drivers; they are engines that are primarily of interest to developers. Included are a scriptable positional astronomy engine based on the USNO NOVAS Vector Astrometry package, an orbit engine that can generate ephemerides from orbital elements, and a scriptable deep sky catalog server with over 70,000 object names listed.
