EKOS is a software for the complete management of the Astrophotography setup. It just requires a small learning curve ... this video has the purpose to shows how it is possible to easily control everything in less of three minutes.

@@avaloninstruments True, EKOS is very powerful and allows any device that has an INDI driver. Is it easy to use? No. Only after you have figured out tons of menus and sub menus. The polar alignment assistant is absolutely great. Is it intuitive? Not, really. The autofocus takes forever to figure out until it works smoothly. Yes, I use EKOS. Would it be my first choice? No.

@@WilliFromEarth is true that EKOS allows to adjust a lot of settings, that's why we made a video showing how can be configured. This can help users to go straight to the point and program a full session in few minutes. The Three Point Polar Alignment plugin automated settings are really easy, all that you need to set is described on the article below: www.avalon-instruments.com/support-2/troubleshooting/261-how-to-configure-the-n-i-n-a-three-point-polar-alignment-plugin-for-the-automated-pa-with-upas The video below shows how it works: www.avalon-instruments.com/support-2/video-tutorial/257-automated-polar-alignment-with-the-n-i-n-a-three-star-polar-alignment-plugin

I use the PAA in EKOS every time I am setting up my M-Uno. It’s relatively straightforward. The rest of EKOS needs a lot of reading and watching tutorials. It’s not intuitive, which is pretty counter productive in today’s world of apps. Yes. Once you figured out all the settings it does a decent job.
