SIAIR Mini enables control of all ASI USB 3.0, ASI Mini, selected DSLR and mirrorless system cameras and mounts via smartphone or tablet.
♦ Full operation of your camera, automatic guidance and automatic tracking of your mount from your smartphone or tablet
♦ Wireless control: no more tangled cables between mount, camera and computer
♦ Stand-alone automatic guidance function in combination with a suitable camera such as the ASI120Mini - ideal for all Astrophotographers with DSLR no longer need a computer in the field
♦ Real-time image preview and focus assist for easy and accurate focusing
Debayer for all ASI Color astronomical cameras with image processing
♦ Almost all equatorial mounts are compatible, p.B. Skywatcher o iOptron
♦ ASIAIR works with iOS and Android operating systems
♦ User-friendly interfaces with a transparent surface
ASIAIR also supports selected DSLR and mirrorless system cameras
ASIAIR Mini is an intelligent WiFi controller for all astrophotography applications.Replaces a laptop or an expensive stand-alone autoguider.Tangled cables in the telescope are also a thing of the past.All you need is your smartphone or tablet, which you connect to the ASIAIR WiFi.The areas of application are diverse:
♦ Control of all cameras ZWO ASI USB 3.0 (except ASI461), but cooled chambers require additional power supply
♦ Autoguidance in combination with a camera ZWO MINI, e.g. with ASI120 Mini
Control of selected mounts, e.g., Skywatcher o iOptron
Control of selected DSLR cameras and mirrorless system
♦ Autofocus with motorized focus ZWO EAF
Debayer function for color cameras ZWO ♦
Image preview
♦ Alignment routine
♦ Video recordings of planets and moons
♦ Live stacking (except ASI6200 and ASI461)
♦ and much more!

ASIAIR is constantly being developed by ZWO and this generation also impresses with its renowned reliability and interesting features:
♦ Built-in WiFi antenna, which significantly strengthens the signal and increases the range;
♦ USB-C connector, this allows you to connect the ASIAIR Mini directly to the computer to transfer data.
ASIAIR Mini is now even more compact and lighter.The housing is made of aluminum and processed with CNC technology, which makes the device even more robust and durable.
♦ Even better operational security: ASIAIR OS runs on eMMC memory.With a new "Auto Recovery Mode" feature, the system automatically detects errors and recovers.
Precise focus:After performing a rough focus, select a star, then a precise focus can be performed through curves such as brightness and HFD.It can also be done with ZWO EAF by remote control.Pole alignment:Based on the powerful plate resolution function, it can complete the polar axis alignment in arc seconds in minutes.Accurate GoTo:With a rich database of celestial objects, an accurate GoTo can be achieved after object selection.Stable guide:Independent and stable guidance control can be achieved without the PC.Preview mode:You can see the image of the object just below 'Preview'.automatic execution:
Set the object and configure the schedule, ASIAIR will run the image sequence automatically.Live stacking:You can see the stacked image (lower noise with calibration shots) of the object directly while shooting.

ASIAIR Mini is a smart WiFi device that allows you to control the system cameras.A list of compatible DSLR and mirrorless system cameras can be found herehere.
ASIAIR does not control astronomical camerasFrom other manufacturers, such as QHY.
ZWO has also worked closely with leading manufacturers to ensure compatibility with iOptron, , Vixen, rainbow, Avalon, Explore Scientific and other models (including some new models).For now, ASIAIR PRO is compatible with hundreds of equatorial mounts from more than 20 manufacturers worldwide.All mounts and cameras compatible with the previous version (ASIAIR) also work with ASIAIR PRO, ASIAIR PLUS and ASIAIR Mini.

The manuals can be found atthe Manuals page of ZWO.
Drivers can be found atthe drivers page of ZWO.
In principle, all supports Skywatcher Goto can be connected to the ASIAIR system.
1. Older Goto systems without USB port
Plug the RS-232 cable included with the bracket into the corresponding socket on the Synscan handbox, connect it to the converter cable ZWO USB-RS232 and connect it to the USB socket of the
aSIAIR switch.in the mount and ASIAIR, select "Synscan" as the mount in the ASIAIR application.Note: The ASIAIR Mini no longer comes with an RS-232 adapter cable.Pos. 1 is omitted here.2. Mounts Skywatcher Synscan with USB connection on the handbox or on the mount itself (e.g. latest EQ6-R and EQ8)Can be connected directly to the ASIAIR with a USB 2 cable.3. Connection via EQMOD
With a suitable EQMOD cable, the mount can also be connected directly to the ASIAIR, bypassing the Synscan hand box.An advantage of this method is that the basic star alignment ("alignment") can be omitted and can go directly to plate resolution.
Compatible cables:
EQDIRUSBEQ5, EQDIR-USB-RJ and HT004 for EQ3, EQ5, HEQ5, AZ-EQ5, EQ6-R, AZ-EQ6, EQ8
EQDIRUSBEQ6, EQDIR-USB-DB9 and HT005 for EQ6 Synscan / Syntrek, Orion Atlas4 Connection via WiFi/WLANThe supports Skywatcher with an integrated WiFi module or the WiFi module 20318 available separately (the latter is suitable for all Skywatcher Goto) can be connected directly to the ASIAIR without a cable.
Please note the additional information that ZWO has been summarized in this manual:
WiFi connection
In principle, all Goto media that support the INDI protocol can be connected to the ASIAIR.A list of these brackets can be found here:
Supports
Please note that, depending on the media, special adapter cables (RS232) may be required, which unfortunately we do not have in our range.These are available from the manufacturer itself or you can make them yourself with the proper knowledge.
With more modern media with USB or WLAN, the connection is made as described above under Skywatcher, if you do not have a driver, you may also need to download the linked drivers from Indilib.
