Unfortunately for me, the software package to control all this, (“TCS”) is Windows-only and the developer sees no point in open-sourcing this or doing any additional work on it, thus no porting to Mac.  (Discussion with him her:  https://www.cloudynights.com/topic/868614-ag-optical-thermal-control-system-app-no-longer-supported/)

I see that kStars already supports Planewave’s Delta-T software, so maybe it wouldn’t be so much of a stretch to support AGO TCS as well.  So that’s my feature request:  add AGO TCS as an “AUX” option in Ekos.
