Real-Time Interactive Windows Software, is a real-time 32-bit program for observers that gives
continuously-updated, highly accurate information about celestial
objects. Its principal features are:
- Controls many Celestron and Meade "Goto" telescopes to slew directly to the selected object.
- Rapidly locate deep-sky objects or bright stars from catalogs.
- Create a custom "tour" based on your own criteria.
- Locate the Sun, Moon, and Planets with excellent accuracy.
- Easy-to-use GUI interface, complete documentation & "help" menu.
- Automatically record object, time, & location information when the Observing Log is opened.
- Display altitude and azimuth of Astronomical Objects In Real-Time.
- Set up "night vision" mode in Windows to preserve your eyes' dark adaptation.
GOTO Telescopes Supported: 1 = Celestron NexStar GPS Family: 8 / 9.25 /11 ; Nexstar5i/8i; Nexstar 60/80/114/4 made since 2002, CGE and Advanced Series with GoTo; 2 = Original Celestron NexStar 5/8; 3 = Old NexStar 60, Nexstar 80, Nexstar 114, Nexstar 4 (2001 and before) and Tasco StarGuide; 4 = Meade LX-200 or Autostar and compatibles (probably including the Losmandy Gemini control system, Vixen SkySensor 2000, Astro-Physics AP series, Astro-Electronic FS-2, Mel Bartels Controllers).
I also have my old program RT, for DOS and Windows 3.1 users. It is still available here , although it is no longer being supported.
