I dont know how you would manage this with your setup but on mine i use the following.ED80 guidescope and a modified 840k webcam. The ed80 is available anywhere for $600 up, the Modified webcam i purchased from an internet vendor in Adelaide $300??? cant remember , he has someone who does the modifying for him and onsells you may have a wait depending on his supply. (AUS Google Modified webcam you should find him.)for the program i use Guidedog FREE available (again WORLD google ).My mount probably uses a different pulse system to yours but i use an adaptor available through shoestring astronomy in US about $65.00 i think .they have list of adaptors on their website. I could name the supplier in adelaide but not sure if OK with this forum, (let me know).This setup works flawlessy on my system finding guidestars with 2 second interval generally easy.Hope this helps although i have no idea how you would mount a guidescope on your setup.
