r/DWARFLAB on Reddit: Question on STA mode (Dwarf 3)
July 23, 2025 -

Hi all!

I’m expecting my Dwarf 3 to arrive today! And like U do with all new tech things, I have been preparing my first moves with it well in advance so that I’m comfortable to get right into action!

One question I have is about STA mode. What happens if I put the Dwarf in STA mode and forget to turn it off one day… finding myself remote with the Dwarf still in STA?

I guess I could then spin up a hotspot (renaming my phone to the original SSID) and use another device to disable STA… but is there any other official procedure on how to disable STA in case you forgot to turn it off?

Thanks!

So I've carried my telescope once again out to the woods where there is no cell phone service. But I do have connection to an internet at the camp. I can't seem to get into STA mode to download the atlas though. Why I need to download the atlas when I've already downloaded the app is not apparent to me. Why the f*** wouldn't that just be part of the app? Anyhow, apparently if I want to use this thing I need to be out in a dark place with little light and a good signal. Anyone know a spot like that that I could come too?

Dwarf Mini Smart Telescope – Review & Tutorial – Wido's AstroForum
November 15, 2025 - The dwarflab app recalculated and showed I was now within about 2° of the north celestial pole. I was happy with that result and tapped Ready, which took me back to the live view. Clear autumn nights in the Netherlands are rare, so I decided to make the most of one good night by imaging four deep-sky objects, spending about one to two hours on each object. I started with the Pleiades, also known as the Seven Sisters. ... To find it in the night sky, I selected Atlas in Deep Sky mode in the DWARFLAB app, which opened in portrait orientation.
