The StellarMate Plus Manual
93 / 341
itʼs recommended to invest in installing an DS3231 RTC module or use a
GPS dongle.
While the RTC provides acceptable time tracking, it does not offer location
information. Therefore, GPS is the recommended solution in the long term. The
following are the supported GPS sources:
· Tablet/Mobile GPS: The StellarMate App relays the tablet/mobile time and
location information to StellarMate. Everytime the SM App is connected to SM
Plus, it automatically synchronizes both time and location information
accordingly.
· External GPS Dongle: SM Plus supports a number of dedicated external GPS
dongles connected via USB. Once connected, select the GPSD driver in your
equipment profile in order to utilize the GPS.
· Mount with GPS: Some mount have internal or external GPS adapters. These
adapters cannot be connected directly to StellarMate, they are used to update
the time and location on the mount handset. You can select Mount as the
source of data if desired.
