My setup uses a Pegasus Astro Powerbox Micro and a Pegasus Astro USB Control Hub. Both devices have a 'Voltage' gauge and it's not immediately apparent which gauge corresponds to which device.

Perhaps the name of the device could be appended to the gauge/switch name in some way?

Fantastic software, fantastic implementation too!!

Thanks for writing this.

Is there a way to control more than one switch of the same type?. I have three digital logger pros, one controls everything on the telescope and the mount. A second controls the weather instruments and their computer that is located in the lower lever of the observatory. The third one controls the dome louvers and fans and is located in a third locations in the observatory.

Is there a way to solve this?

During registration of the dll a warning is produced about the assembly being unsigned:

RegAsm : warning RA0000 : Registering an unsigned assembly with /codebase can cause your assembly to interfere with other applications that may be installed on the same computer. The /codebase switch is intended to be used only with signed assemblies. Please give your assembly a strong name and re-register it.

Note, the ascom switch hub still is able to function just fine despite the warning.

Fantastic software, fantastic implementation too!!

When using the switch hub with DigitalLogger switch experience an ASCOM exception - ASCOM.DriverException: WebClient does not support concurrent I/O operations.
This occurs when calling switch a second time in sequence: Log snippets:
