Gday Peter
I'm confused
The LX200s use a bog std 3wire rs232 serial cable
sooooooooo, what is generating the error
"cannot detect device error 203." ????
If the scopestuff cable has an inbuilt usb2ser adapter,
then the problem "probably" lies between the PC and it.
Or, are you are using a third party usb2ser adapter???
If you plug in your cable ( but not to the scope )
and start my PEC editor, does it detect the adapter
as an "available" com port????
ie is the converter even being seen as a "com" port????
I regulary used a 30m length of 4wire flat phone cable
and i now use a cat5 cable with my rs232 for the scope
and camera feed for my webby run together
and it works quite happily.
Shielding shouldnt be required for your run length
More interested as to whats not playing
( ie what is "generating" the error )
