INDIGO A1

INDIGO A1 brings your astrophotography equipment together in one native app for Mac, iPad and iPhone. From finding and framing a target to focusing, guiding and capturing a sequence, keep your imaging session under control from a single workspace. Use the built-in INDIGO server on your Mac to control connected equipment, or connect to an external INDIGO server such as INDIGO Sky on a Raspberry Pi or an observatory computer. On iPad and iPhone, connect to your server to control equipment, inspect images and follow your session. CAPTURE AND FOCUS Control compatible astronomy cameras, focusers and filter wheels. Set up exposure batches, run autofocus and inspect image previews with stretching, debayering, histograms and star measurements. Use FWHM, HFD and Peak maps to evaluate image quality across the frame. GUIDE AND DITHER Calibrate and run autoguiding, monitor tracking with live graphs and coordinate dithering with image capture. FIND AND FRAME YOUR TARGET Explore the sky map and search built-in catalogues, SIMBAD and JPL HORIZONS. Control slewing, tracking and parking. With a compatible plate solver, use image solving, precise GoTo, star alignment and polar alignment to get your setup ready for imaging. AUTOMATE YOUR SESSION Build imaging sequences on Mac and iPad, then run and monitor them from your connected device. Coordinate focusing, guiding, capture and mount operations, with conditions based on time, solar altitude and target altitude. For advanced workflows, edit JavaScript scripts on Mac. MAKE THE WORKSPACE YOURS Create custom dashboards with equipment controls, image previews and status graphs. Save equipment configurations and restore them for your next session. Access raw device properties whenever you need detailed control or troubleshooting. CONTROL YOUR ACCESSORIES Manage compatible power boxes, dew controllers, flat panels, dust covers and weather sensors alongside your imaging equipment. Supported setups can also include domes and field rotators. WORKS WITH INDIGO SKY Connect INDIGO A1 to INDIGO Sky running on a Raspberry Pi attached to your telescope. Control your cameras, mount, focuser, filter wheel and accessories over the network, inspect incoming images and monitor imaging sequences from your Mac, iPad or iPhone. INDIGO agents run on the server, so an imaging sequence can continue even if the app disconnects; reconnect later to check progress and retrieve images. On Mac, you can also use the built-in INDIGO server to control equipment connected directly to your computer. TRY THE COMPLETE WORKFLOW Try all features free for 14 days. Permanently unlock Imager, Guider, Mount and Dashboard features individually through in-app purchases. INDIGO A1 requires compatible astronomical equipment and drivers. Available controls depend on your hardware and INDIGO server. Plate solving requires a compatible solver and the appropriate index files. Requires iOS/iPadOS 17 or later.
