Yes, as long as it is their DC motor, it should work.

Excuse me for my insistence with the FCUSB. I use the DSUSB and GPUSB and both work very well, but I need to be sure that the FCUSB will work with this Moonlite crayford CR-1 with servo motor:

And this is the jack of the hand controller of the dc servo motor:

I would like to focus (autofocus) with the PC and Images Plus 3.50 with your FCUSB.

Thank you for your patience and excuse me for my patetic english.
