In addition to the primary DragScript Actions, which do things like slewing the mount and running a sequence, DragScript elements can control other observatory functions, such as Starkeeper.it's companion product, Viking, which monitors and controls observatory I/O devices. Custom observatory control elements are also listed here, but they will not be of general interest.

Viking

These elements send commands to Voyager's companion product, Viking. Viking monitors and controls I/O devices in the observatory.

For more information on Viking, visit https://voyagerastro.com/products/viking

Viking Client

These commands connect to Viking and to Viking I/O cards. Refer to Viking Setup for further information on configuring Voyager to communicate with Viking.
