The ASCOM Platform provides a set of standardized telescope drivers for many models of telescopes, domes, cameras, and other observatory equipment.
The latest ASCOM Platform can be downloaded from http://ascom-standards.org.
MaxDome II requires external software to synchronize the dome to the telescope. The ASCOM Platform includes the ASCOM Device Hub. Other options include MaxIm DL Pro, and third-party applications such as ACP.
