SX Trius users

New Trius owner/user here, and the manual is kind of vague in regards to using the 3 USB ports.

The manual states you can plug a guidecam (Lodestar) into one of the ports and another can be used for other peripherals (like the filterwheel, which is what I already have connected there). Does this imply the fact that you can guide by connecting the Lodestar directly to the Trius cam (in my case an H674) and the Trius' USB connection to the laptop will do both image acquisition with the main cam and also provide power and guider info to the Lodestar? I know I'll have to runt he Lodestar's ST4 direct to the handset of the mount.

Appreciate the info. I realise I can run the Lodestar independently as I currently do with the guide scope setup, but why not take advantage of both the FW OAG and less cables if I can
