My faithful LX200 is having problems.
I just turned it on for the first time in a couple of weeks and find the following:
- Powers up normally.
- Computer connects to LX200 normally.
- Tell the LX200 to slew to an object and it will.
- RA tracks normally.
However! This is where the good news ends.
No matter how much, in what speed, I tell the telescope to move (using N/S/E/W keys, or similar motion controls in TheSky on the computer), it doesn't move!
It's strange!
I'm very concerned, partially because this week my internet router strangely died - the ADSL port worked but the LAN ports died. While the LX200 is on a fully filtered & surge protected UPS I am concerned something has fried part of it.
Any ideas to help diagnose the problem?
Thankyou for any help.
