The Temma driver shouldn't need to be in the ciel directory. Nor the ASCOM
platform. If you installed the ASCOM platform there, CdC may be having
problems finding it. The only part that needs to be there is the CdC ASCOM
plug-in.

If the options in telescope>"select scope interface" are grey, it probably
can't find the plug-in, which is the first step. Obvious question: did you
install it after downloading?
