/* Autoguiding */
== Autoguiding ==
As of February 2021, there is a web browser interface to the standalone autoguider GUI run on 1ms1, so users no longer need to VNC to Lesedi-NUC. Note that the original autoguider software does need to be running on Lesedi-NUC in order to operate the guider, but you shouldn't need to interact with it directly.
