Purchase a License

General Information

Thanks for deciding to purchase a license for ACP Observatory Control Software. The link below takes you to our online store. The Internet licenses entitle you to all of ACP's functions, including internet browser access using the built-in web and FTP servers. The Basic license gives you all of ACP's observatory automation features but limited browser access (you can use the web pages only from the local machine running ACP).

Requires the ASCOM Platform (free), as well as MaxIm DL.

If you want auto focusing, you'll need the latest FocusMax.

If you have been running the 60-day demo, you do not need to re-install ACP after purchasing a license. Just use the serial number that will be emailed to you to unlock the time limit.
