Ciao e complimenti per il video davvero interessante. Ho notato però che nel manuale LX200 classic, il pinout del Panel Control Telescop RS232 J11 è diverso rispetto a quello rappresentato nel video. Ovvero il ground si sposta sul PIN 2 da destra verso sinistra (attuale colore GIALLO), il segnale TX VERDE si sposta sul pin 4 , il segnale RX si sposta sul BIANCO PIN 5 sempre da destra verso sinistra. In sostanza, la numerazione sul Manuale inizia sul PIN1 da destra verso sinistra, anziche da sinistra verso destra del video. E' così? Grazie mille
The diagram in the manual is confusing. Looking into the female RS232 connector on the front panel, left-to-right, you have +V, GND, LX200 TX1, LX200 TX2, LX200 RX1, LX200 RX2.
Hey mate I am battling an old LX200 10 inch I just picked up and having no luck, what is the software you used to get it moving? I have tried writing the BASIC code but I am no programmer. Any help would be much appreciated. Cheers
@clearlinetechnologycorp.5974 thanks for your reply i have tried stellarium and can not get it to connect at all. Usung some random software to send commands and bridging pin 2+3 on the cable shows the cable works as i can send and receive back what i sent but scope doesent do anything. I am usibg a converter too so might try to find an ancient pc with a rs232 port. I will try to find an oscilloscope and follow your guide too. Cheers
@@StompAE86 Make sure your converter outputs actual RS232-level signals to the telescope, they are not the same as 5v logic levels. The loopback test will not uncover this.

@@robertoventurelli7602 I'm sorry, but I am not familiar with the ASIair, nor your cable, so I can not advise you.
Is there a video yet for rs232 chip replacement?
Not from us yet. But it would be a straight IC - replacement similar to the L2724 replacement in that video.

It's our own test software, but you should be able to use most planetarium programs like Sky Safari or Stellarium. They talk to the LX200.
