Default ETX-90, Network connection and LPI

Ok - probably a VERY dumb question here...but I'm new so please
forgive the ignorance...

I've got my ETX-90 connected to a laptop with Autostar Suite running -
I've got a wireless LAN connection to my main machine in the house -
allowing me to control this over my internal network - all fine and
dandy..

Now ..erm...how do I get the images across the network ?

I have an LPI sitting on the telescope but obviously can't access it
remotely. Unless I use PCAnywhere...but when I use that there is no
point in having a remote server running for Autostar Suite !

So here is the daft question.... what good is remote control of this
thing if all I can do is traverse star-charts without seeing
anything...

I'm probably having a really bad day but I'm missing something.

Any help or guidance would be appreciated...

Thanks

Hi,
I am also a newbie with the ETX 90. I don't see any replies. Did you receive some
private replies?

Do you know about this web site?

http://www.weasner.com/etx/menu.html

Tons of ETX information. I am slowly digesting it.

Warm Regards,
Lou

Hi, nope - never got a reply.

I'll have a look at the website though - thanks for the info...maybe
I'll glean something from it.

Cheers
