It’s probably worthwhile to update the Prolific driver as well in Device Manager
Attached is how to connect EQMOD ( via Stellarium which is what I use ) or can use any other planetarium
Been using EQMOD for 6 years now on EQ5 , HEQ5, EQ6-R’s and EQ8-R pro mounts. The early mounts only had a serial port ( DB9 port and / or RJ45 hand controller port ) from 2019 they included the USB2 port which made it more universal.
If using the handcontroller port for telescope control use Baud rate 9600
If using the USB2 port for telescope control use Baud rate 115200
Cheers
