Hi David, Paul
Thanks for the reply, maybe I should have been more adventurous about that USB port, yes, I have the AZ-EQ6 Pro which has the additional USB port, but I did some searching on various boards and there seemed to be reports about problems using that port with EQMOD and the EQ-6 Pro. Excuse the pun, maybe I got my wires crossed, I have the Lynx Astro cable on order anyway, it seems to be well made and 5m length.
There are some things on the Skywatcher handset control which seem quite lacking. There don’t seem to be user friendly slew limits you can set to prevent scope collision. A second thing that is missing is the ability to ‘spiral search’ when you slew to an object but it’s not quite in the field of view, the Meade Autostar has this covered which seems to be a major advantage for imaging planets; ie you focus perfectly on a star at high magnification/bahtinov mask then you slew to a planet that’s slightly out of the field of view at such power.
Can EQMOD do both easily?
Thx, Fox
