How to Connect Your Telescope to the UNISTELLAR Application?

Once the UNISTELLAR app is open, you can connect your telescope by tapping the + button at the bottom left of the home screen or by tapping Add Instrument in the Settings menu at the top left.

Note: Your telescope should be turned on, and the LED indicator should be red (or blue, depending on your telescope settings), confirming that it is ready to connect.

Important: Make sure that Wi-Fi and Bluetooth are activated on your device (smartphone or tablet).

The app will search for available UNISTELLAR instruments that are powered on and ready to connect. When your telescope appears, select it by tapping on it.

A pop-up will then ask if you want to connect to the telescope’s Wi-Fi network. Confirm by tapping Join.

Once the connection is established, a message will appear saying All set! Tap Start Exploring.

When your telescope is connected and ready to observe, the + button becomes an Instrument button .

What to Do if the Connection Fails? 
 

You can still manually connect to your telescope’s network if the connection fails. 

Activate Wi-Fi on your device. If the scope is switched on and the LED is red (or blue, depending on your telescope settings), you should find your telescope as an available network on your smartphone or tablet.

Once connected, you should see the message: "Connected to device. Can't provide internet"

Note: If your telescope does not display its Wi-Fi network, you can reset it: 

Turn on your telescope and click the on/off button 10 times (half a second x 10) to reset your network settings. 

Once the network settings have been reset, the LED will turn purple for a few seconds and then blue again (or red, depending on your telescope settings).
