There are other more 'open' ways to drive Servocat goto systems, one is to use the Astro Devices wifi Nexus box with any Android tablet running Sky Safari app, the Nexus will drive the Servocat and you will get good skyview pictorial of what's going on, and it is uch lower cost than Argo Navis. I use Sky Safari and Nexus wifi in Pushto model on my 16" and it works great, says locked for hours, and is easy to use. Astro Devices also has a bluetooth box that will interface encoders. if your going to automate your scope I would suggest starting with a Pushto system, as this will give you the encoders, and app connectivity and its a great novice learning tool - you can add Servocat later if you wish. Btw there is a new Servocat Jr for smaller scopes that is lower cost.
