ASCOM control of DC focusser motors

Still trying to find a solution to controlling an Orion Accufocus motor from the computer; maybe getting closer. The ASCOM driver set includes the Meade generic focusser LX200 etc which is just a DC motor, so I figure if it can control one it could control another!!?? Or is it usinf something in the Meade controller electronics??
Anyone familiar with the "code" ASCOM uses to switch the motors???? Seems to be serial connect.
