Thank's Michael, Ralph, Astroviking and Doc G,

for all your answeres. I think I will use it as stand alone autoguider, and
continue to look for an old computer for the job.

Here are some options:

1. The 216 could be placed in stand-alone mode without having to use
PictorView
to invoke autoguide.

2. Run a second instance of PV 7.11 to invoke autoguide to the 216 (I never
tried this)

3. Run DOS PV 3.03 available at http://www.ssccorp.com/astrostf.htm#Dospview
in
a Windows DOS window to invoke autoguide in the 216 (I never tried this
either).
