WandererCover V4-EC IR - Motorized flap panel with infrared remote control<\/h3>\n

Controllable via ASIAIR \/ StellaVita<\/strong>compatible ASCOM<\/strong> and INDI<\/strong>the WandererCover V4-EC IR<\/em> is the new generation of motorized flap panel<\/strong>. Ultra-light and robust, it differs from the classic V4-EC model in its direct control via infrared remote control<\/strong> - ideal for field and nomadic setups. No need for USB: a simple cable 12V<\/strong> is enough to manage everything.<\/p>\n

Why choose the IR version?<\/h3>\n
    \n
  • Infrared remote control<\/strong> no need to connect a USB cable if you're not using ASCOM - simplifies setup in the field.<\/li>\n
  • Quick installation<\/strong> a single cable 12V<\/strong> powers and controls the system.<\/li>\n
  • Perfect for ASIAIR<\/strong> simplified management without the need for a computer.<\/li>\n
  • Nomad-friendly<\/strong> fewer cables, fewer points of failure, more fluidity for your nights.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n

    Key features<\/h3>\n
      \n
    • Built-in micro-encoder<\/strong> real-time feedback, \u00b10,25\u00b0<\/strong> precision, customizable angles.<\/li>\n
    • Reinforced motor<\/strong> +50 % load capacity, cold-resistant (up to -25 \u00b0C<\/strong>), more than 3,000 cycles<\/strong> tested.<\/li>\n
    • Anti-mist heating panel<\/strong> : keeps the flat dry all night and evaporates dew in the morning, can be controlled in NINA<\/strong> (\"Device Actions and Commands\" plugin).<\/li>\n
    • Perfect flats<\/strong> Enhanced PWM controller (\u00d72), 255 levels<\/strong> brightness, no stripes as soon as 0,1 s<\/strong>narrowband flats (3 nm) in ~1 s.<\/li>\n
    • Exclusive cable management<\/strong> anti-tear solution, soft pads<\/strong> scratch-resistant, including universal clamps.<\/li>\n
    • Extended compatibility<\/strong> : ASCOM<\/strong>, INDI<\/strong>, ASIAIR Plus<\/strong>, StellaVita<\/strong> (via DC output).<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n

      Warning: not compatible with the ASIAIR integrated in ZWO AIR series cameras.<\/em><\/p>\n

      Quick selection guide (luminous diameter)<\/h3>\n

      Golden rule<\/strong> : always choose a model with a luminous diameter \u2265 outer diameter<\/strong> of the mist shield.<\/p>\n

        \n
      • Example: bezel 100 mm<\/strong> with mist guard \u00d8 120 mm<\/strong> \u2192 choose 125IR<\/strong>.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n

          FAQ<\/h3>\n

          What's the difference with the classic V4-EC?<\/strong>
          \nThe IR model includes a infrared remote control<\/strong>This means it can be used without USB, and only with a 12V power supply. Easier for nomad setups and ASIAIR.<\/p>\n

          Do I need a PC to control it?<\/strong>
          \nNo, with the remote control you can open\/close directly. For automation (NINA sequences, etc.), USB\/ASCOM is still possible.<\/p>\n

          Is it compatible with ASIAIR?<\/strong>
          \nYes, with the latest firmware<\/strong> and DC output. Please note: not compatible with the ASIAIR integrated in some ZWO cameras.<\/p>\n

          Is the heating system automatic?<\/strong>
          \nNo, but it is controllable in NINA<\/strong> via plugin. It can be activated continuously to prevent humidity.<\/p>\n

          Can I use the remote control and ASCOM in parallel?<\/strong>
          \nYes, IR is an additional control mode that simplifies life on the move.<\/p>\n<\/div>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
