If so you can use a normal USB-A to USB-B, if not then I think you'll need the adapter listed on the EQMAC link. |
Hi Xeteth, unfortunately my mount is a generation older without that USB plug (nice mount though). Mine has the older RS-232 plug and then an RJ45 style autoguide plug.
Nikolas, I do have the old plug and cable - RS-232 on one end and RJ-45 the other. I'm not entirely confident plugging this into my MacBook yet, especially after reading the commentary in the EQMac website (connecting your Mac to the mount section), as I don't want to fry my Mac. I have to find out what voltages come out of that plug... Anyone?
