What are you trying to do?

Select your situation and go straight to the relevant guides.

Setup

I just received it — where do I start?

Unbox, connect to your network and configure the DragonFly for the first time. Includes express video tutorials for common scenarios.

Automation

How do I automate my observatory?

Program the DragonFly to act on its own — close the roof on bad weather, reset the PC if it hangs, park the mount. All without the main PC running.

Troubleshoot

Something's not working — how do I fix it?

Network disconnections, UDP port conflicts, firmware issues or relay problems — step-by-step diagnosis to get you back up and running.

Software integration

How do I connect it to my automation software?

Use DragonFly with ASCOM, INDIGO, CCDCommander or Node-RED. Control relays and read sensor data from any compatible platform.

Sensors & add-ons

I want to add sensors or accessories

Connect temperature probes, humidity sensors, tilt sensors and distance sensors. Control a dew heater or humidifier from within the DragonFly's relay logic.

Developer resources

I want to build a custom integration

Integrate DragonFly into your own software using JavaScript, C# or the Seletek low-level protocol. Control relays and read sensors programmatically.
