Software Bisque

The Paramount ME™ Robotic Telescope System features a German
equatorial mount with research-grade 11-inch right ascension gears that
provide unsurpassed tracking performance. Astronomers equipped with a
Paramount ME are defining new levels of reliability, productivity and
performance. Hefting up to 150 pounds of astronomical equipment, and
designed for uninterrupted operation, the Paramount ME can be used as a
remote or Internet Astronomy™ solution. Through advanced CNC
construction, it is “field portable” at 68 pounds. The system includes
the Bisque Observatory Software Suite (TheSky6™ Professional Edition,
CCDSoft™, TPoint™ and ProTrack™, Orchestrate™, and Internet
Astronomy™ Software Client and Server applications) as well as the
Bisque TCS™ dual-axis DC servomotor control system with USB and serial
interface, and AutoHome™ start-up.
The Paramount ME is built for the digital age, featuring integrated
telescope and CCD camera control, unattended start-up and automated
operation, 7 arcseconds or less peak-to-peak periodic error before
correction, and precision guided or unguided tracking (using TPoint and
ProTrack™). The result is unsurpassed image quality and observatory
performance. Visit the Paramount
