Power Supply for a USD II Mount

[Hans Tucker (Hans)]

I have a EM200 USD II Mount and I am looking for a suitable mains to 12V power supply. Can I use the 110/220VAC to 24VDC power supply (#TPS0024) that I use for my NJP on the USD II? I read that the motors in the EM200 USD II can accept either 12V or 24V but I am not sure if this is this correct?

Hans. I have read the same. Slew speeds increase 2x at 24v as I understand it.

I have used a 24v power pack from Jaycar on both my EM200 and EM400 mounts. Slewing speed increases with 24v.

The one I bought is a 24v, 2 amp switchmode, MP-3244 but I think they're discontinued.

You should be ok using your 24v, just check your DC polarity.
My mounts accept the centre +.
