Hey Alex,

Have a look in your device manager/usb ports in windows control panel & see if anything shows up there. It may be that you need an updated driver, it might be trying to use a port thats already assigned to another device (windows doesnt always drop port/usb assignments automatically or, its possible, its not compatible with the version of windows youre using.

Did any software come with the control unit? Have you installed it?

We can see if we can work through this & hopefully get a result for you.

Cheers

Mine works ok manually but I have no success driving it from the lap top..yes I have the little box and software but all I get is a message that no Focuser is located.
Anyone driving via a lap top that can suggest what I may be missing?
I have tried linking direct to the lappy and bypassing any usb hub still no result.
