Starting AstroArt with a script

[AstroBernd]

Maybe I missed it but I am wondering about the following:
Is it possible to have AstroArt execute a script right from the start, e.g. like in a command line: "AstroArt64 C:\Data\startup.txt"?
This is to get the whole setup ready for (automated) observation.
Thanks

Hi, it's possible with the Remote Control SDK, but it's more complicated.
OK, launching the script by command line has been added today, to receive now the prerelease of the SP4 just write me by email or PM.

Thanks! I'd request it but I have just decommissioned my observatory until next November.

Hi Fabio, I am trying to get my observatory to auto start and this Remote SDK method sounds like it is what I need.

I have created a batch file that will start both AstroArt and PHD2 but when I try to get it to start a script in AstroiArt it says its the wrong sort of script.

Can I test the SDK Remote method please?

Regards,
Wayne

Wayne,
there is one restriction when starting AstroArt with a script: no blanks aloud neither in the filename nor in the path:
this works: Astroart64.exe -script AAStartupSequenceV1.txt
this does NOT work: Astroart64.exe -script AA StartupSequence V1.txt
Maybe that is the reason
Take care
Bernd
