I am surprised no one is trying this, because the latest Synscan firmware allows direct PC control through the handset, yet everyone seems hung up on direct without hand controller as intermediary. I believe this is why Skywatcher did the latest firmware in the first place.

PC -> USB to serial converter -> serial to RJ45 into handcontroller, then handcontroller to mount as usual. Just what Skywatcher says to do. No need for a shoestring converter etc.
