ZWO ASIAIR PLUS - never has astrophotography been so easy!
ASIAIR PLUS 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 - but cooled cameras need an extra power supply.
Autoguiding (see Testimonials section) 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 system 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
and much more!

ASIAIR PLUS is the third generation of ASIAIR
ASIAIR is continuously developed further by ZWO and also the third generation convinces, besides the well-known reliability, by interesting innovations:
Built-in WiFi antenna, which greatly amplifies the signal and extends the range;
Four newly added indicators for the 12 V DC outputs. This allows you to check the power status and monitor the consumption in real time.
New USB-C port, this allows you to connect the ASIAIR Plus directly to your computer to transfer the data instead of going through an SD card (not supplied) and the card reader.
ASIAIR Plus is now even more compact and lighter. The body is made of aluminum and CNC machined, which makes the device even more robust and durable.
Even better operational reliability - ASIAIR OS runs on eMMC memory. A new "Auto Recovery Mode" feature allows the system to automatically detect errors and restore itself.
ASIAIR Plus´ internal memory for pictures and videos is a generous 32 GB.


Accurate focusing: After coarse focusing is completed, select a star, then accurate focusing can be done by curves such as brightness and HFD. It can also be done with ZWO EAF by remote control.





Polar alignment: Based on the powerful plate-solving function, you can complete the arc-second alignment of the polar axis within a few minutes.





Accurate GoTo: With the rich celestial object database, accurate GoTo can be achieved after selecting the object.





Stable guiding: Independent and stable tracking control can be achieved without the PC.





Preview mode: You can see the image of the object directly under ´Preview´.





Autorun: Set the object and configure the schedule, ASIAIR will run the image sequence automatically.





Live stacking: You can see the stacked image (lower noise with calibration shots) of the object directly during capturing.





Supported DSLR and mirrorless system cameras
ASIAIR PLUS is a smart WiFi device that allows you to control many system cameras. A listing of compatible DSLR and mirrorless system 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 and ASIAIR PLUS.

Manuals can be found on ZWO´s manuals page.

Drivers can be found on ZWO´s software and driver page.

Connecting ASIAIR to Skywatcher Goto mounts
In principle, all Skywatcher Goto mounts can be connected to the ASIAIR system:

1. Older Goto systems without USB connection
- Plug the RS-232 cable supplied with the mount into the corresponding socket of the Synscan handbox, connect it with the ZWO USB-RS232 converter cable and plug it into the USB socket of the ASIAIR.

- Switch on mount and ASIAIR, select "Synscan" as mount in the ASIAIR app.




Note: The new ASIAIR Plus has no RS-232 adapter cable included anymore. Here then pos. 1 is omitted.


2. Skywatcher Synscan mounts with USB connection on the handbox or the mount itself (e.g. newer EQ6-R and EQ8)

- These can be connected directly to the ASIAIR with a USB 2 cable.






3. Connection via EQMOD

With a suitable EQMOD cable, the mount can also be connected directly, bypassing the Synscan handbox, to as ASIAIR. One advantage of this method is that the basic alignment to stars ("alignment") can be bypassed and you can go directly to plate solving.

Suitable cables:
EQDIRUSBEQ5, EQDIR-USB-RJ and HT004 for EQ3, EQ5, HEQ5, AZ-EQ5, EQ6-R, AZ-EQ6, EQ8
EQDIRUSBEQ6, EQDIR-USB-DB9 and HT005 for EQ6 Synscan / Syntrek, Orion Atlas






4. Connection via WiFi/WLAN

Skywatcher mounts with integrated WLAN module or the separately available 20318 WLAN module (the latter fits all Skywatcher Goto mounts) can be directly connected to the ASIAIR without any cables.

Please note the additional hints ZWO has summarized in this manual: WiFI connection.

Connecting ASIAIR to other Goto mounts
In principle, all goto mounts that support the INDI protocol can be connected to the ASIAIR. A list of these mounts can be found here.

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.

"Nach zahlreichen frustranen Versuchen mit Astroberry und Stellarmate auf Raspi 3 und 4, endlich eine funktionierende Komplettlösung. Wermutstropfen, läuft nur mit ASI Kameras. Deshalb eigentlich nur 4,5 Sterne."

"Im Vergleich zum Vorgänger Modell ASIAIR Pro läuft die Plus Variante stabiler, da der WLAN Empfang aufgrund einiger Modifikationen besser ist."

"Der kleine Astrocomputer funktioniert einfach und sehr intuitiv. Leider keine Funktion mit anderen Herstellern von Astrokameras und Fokusmotoren."

"Amazing what you can do with this tiny box. The full automation of polar alignment and orchestration of imaging / calibration, saves me at least 2 hours per imaging night. I moved from the Pro to the Plus model due to the better coverage and reliability of the WiFi signal."

"ASIAIR, meine 2., läuft perfekt, am Update der Firmware muss ZWO aber noch arbeiten, es gibt kleiner Bugs, z.Bsp. erkennt es die Kamera bzw. alle USB Geräte nicht sofort, erst nach Neustart. "

"Efficient and easy to use. I don´t agree - at all - with the ""ZWO only"" policy about anything you´ll plug in it (though I can understand), but except for that I have to admit it works really well. The learning curve isn´t steep."
