Is the CCD port of the Losmandy 492 system directly compatable with the output of the GPUSB? Is it just a direct 6 pin plug to plug connection? I thought I'd ask first this time before I start blowing things up!
I found a source for a relay board that works exactly like drawing GP3. It operates on 12 VDC and has all screw terminals for easy connection. Tried it with my GPUSB (which Doug nicely repaired after my previous experiment) and it works great. Here's a link to the page: http://www.simplecircuitboard...
Well.. I think I fried it. I'm in process of making a 12 VDC relay box interface based on the GP-1 diagram. I didn't use the Digikey relays, but I did use 12 VDC reed relays from Radio-Shack. The coil ohmage was about the same (1050) so I thought that would be OK. I pinned my own 6 pin cable which I...
