Hub ASIAIR Mini wifi - ZWO

ZWO ASIAIR Mini - never has astrophotography been so easy!

ASIAIR Mini is an intelligent WiFi controller for all astrophotography applications. It replaces a laptop or even an expensive stand-alone autoguider. Also the cable tangle at the telescope is a thing of the past. You only need your smartphone or a tablet, which you connect to the ASIAIR-WiFi. The areas of application are manifold:

• Control of all ZWO ASI USB 3.0 cameras (except ASI461) - but cooled cameras need an extra power supply.
• Autoguiding in combination with a ZWO MINI camera, e.g. with the ASI120 Mini
• Control of selected mounts, for example from Skywatcher or iOptron
• Control of selected DSLR and mirrorless cameras
• Autofocusing with the ZWO EAF motorized focuser
• Debayer function for ZWO color cameras
• Image preview
• Polar alignment routine
• Planetary and lunar video capture
• Live Stacking (except ASI6200 und ASI461)
• and much more!

Supported DSLR and mirrorless cameras

ASIAIR Mini is a smart WiFi device that allows you to control DSLR and mirrorless cameras. A listing of compatible DSLR and mirrorless cameras can be found here.

Astrocameras from other manufacturers, such as QHY, are not controlled by ASIAIR.

Supported Mounts

ZWO has also worked closely with major manufacturers to ensure compatibility of iOptron, Vixen, Rainbow, Avalon, Explore Scientific and other models (including some new models). For now, the ASIAIR PRO supports hundreds of equatorial mounts from more than 20 manufacturers worldwide. All mounts and cameras supported by the previous version（ASIAIR) will also work with the ASIAIR PRO, ASIAIR PLUS, and ASIAIR Mini.]

Connecting ASIAIR on lot of Goto mounts

In principle, all goto mounts that support the INDI protocol can be connected to the ASIAIR.


Please note that depending on the mount, special (RS232) adapter cables may be necessary, which we unfortunately do not have in our program. These can be obtained from the manufacturer or can be made with appropriate knowledge.

For modern mounts with USB or WLAN the connection is done as described above under Skywatcher, you may have to download the drivers linked in the indilib additionally.
