Seletek LIMPET, the smallest and most recent Seletek-ASCOM, INDIGO and INDILib compliant. With a small 12V battery and the wifi interface, no cables coming out of the telescope!

  • The Limpet focuser controller works from:
      • any astronomy program (ASCOM and INDILib drivers available)
      • your smartphone
      • your computer’s web browser
  • can alternatively control a camera rotator (with our Lunatico's software and ASCOM)
  • very small enclosure
  • central hole to easily attach the Limpet to the telescope using a single screw
  • Wifi and USB connection
  • Very low power requirements (30mA idle connected to wifi, 530mA focusing with the standard motor)
  • Optional external wifi antenna needed if the wifi signal is weak – if the wifi access point is in the observatory it won’t be necessary
  • Optional external temperature sensor
  • The Seletek Platypus and Armadillo will work with it--just one device at any time.
  • Including a screw locking 2.1x 5.5mm jack for safe attachment of power cable
  • 5.5 / 2.1mm standard jack, center positive, 12V dc (13.8V, as supplied by some batteries, is valid)
  • ASCOM, INDIGO and INDILib enabled
  • focus from your smartphone via web interface
With the Limpet you can:
  • Control one focus motor
  • Control one rotator motor
  • Use Lunatico's free program PinByPin for independent control of any controller pin, manual or automated (depending on temperature delta), useful not only for fan control but also for dew heater bands like the ZeroDew system.
  • Rotator control
