Are you certain that the NGC Max is ASCOM compliant and uses ASCOM
drivers?. I had a really good search on the whole of JMIs website and
the only mention of ASCOM was for their focuser. Maybe starry night
drives the NGC Max directly or through a plugin, rather than through
the ASCOM interface?. I have just got Pro Plus 6 but haven't installed
it on my new machine yet. I'll have a look next week. Of course, it's
possible it will only show up in starry night if the NGC Max is
connected and powered up, especially as it is has a serial interface,
and I don't own one.
