Software

Software makes the hardware go!

A POCS unit needs some software to run various components. This includes the mount and camera control computers (usually a Raspberry Pi but can be anything), as well as an Arduino Uno for the power distribution.

The first step to making the software run is Installation of all the software.

Then perform Configurationof the software so it works with your hardware.

Finally, perform some Testing to ensure everything works!
