Readme File for Skymap Pro ASCOM driver

Installation
------------

To install the driver, extract it from the zip file and save it in the "Drivers"
subdirectory of the SkyMap Pro installation directory. 

Selecting the "Telescope|Configure..." menu item from within the SMP program will
then automatically show the name of the new driver as "ASCOM driver".

On the 'Configure Telescope' dialog, click the 'Configure...' button. This will
launch the ASCOM Telescope Chooser. Use this utility to select and configure the
telescope connection for the ASCOM driver.

Notes:
------
  The driver stores its configuration data under the Skymap registry key 
  "HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\SkyMap Software\ASCOM Driver ID".
  This location is independent of the SMP version, allowing users with multiple
  versions of SMP to only configure the driver once.
 
  The ASCOM runtime environment must be installed for the driver to work.
