Hello,
Is there any info or a link somewhere on what I need to buy and connect/control my Celestron CPC 1100 with stellarium on an iPad or android phone?
I would like to connect a wire from the scope or scope hand controller to tablet/phone than choose objects on stellarium and press go to. Than manually slew the telescope to center the target/object. Is this possible?
I found this link on Cloudy Nights but maybe it's old information from 2020?
Thank you.

A USB adapter (either Micro to female or C to female depending on YOUR phone)
A USB cable from the adapter to your scope mount (USB to Mini USB )
