3rd party cables in case the first one lets you down

This greatly reduced cable clutter as there was no need to connect a hand controller. (since I have to use my laptop for autoguiding anyway) This is much better than the serial to USB conversion you have to use with Atlas Pro. This involves connecting 2 wires together, increasing the chances of wire damage ruining a very precious clear night. (Besides, why does the $2,000 bracket still have a serial cable in 2020?)

Pros
  • Good thing
Cons
  • -

Is working! Electronics for cables and connections

Powered by asiair as advertised. I used it in the Orion Skyview Pro GOTO system. Choose an EQMD mount. Another Revain cable advertised as EQMOD did not work.

Pros
  • High marks for support and durability from testers
Cons
  • No paint required

Works with ASIAIR Pro and Orion SkyView Pro GoTo mount

Connected Orion SkyView Pro GoTo mount with ASIAIR Pro. Attached RJ45 connector instead of hand control and USB end on ASIAIR Pro and selected EQMod Mount driver.

Pros
  • Stylish and modern design
Cons
  • Expensive insurance
