Almost, but not quite!

My handset looks very similar, but has a single RJ connector that goes to the mount. Power (12 v) goes straight to the mount as well, rather than via the handset. All of the buttons and switches appear to be the same otherwise, but mine has the text "HEQ5/EQ6 Control Unit" or similar printed instead of "dual axis motor drive", and does not have the RA and DEC labels.

(I'll try and grab a picture of it tonight)

I'd assumed that there was essentially one flavour of non-synscan controller for the EQ5/6's with internal motor drives - I guess not!
