Astrophysics mount -> LX200

Bill J Gray Aug 12, 2002

Hi Mike and James,

Select "LX-200" in Guide's telescope control setup, and you should
be all set. As Mike suggested, the AP protocol is quite similar to that
for the LX-200; the subset of that protocol used by Guide should be
understood by AP scopes.

(I should qualify that slightly: I know the 'slew scope' and 'slew Guide'
functions will work. I'm not so sure about some of the other functions,
such as those to set slewing speed and the 'slew' arrows and stop
button. Those _probably_ work with AP scopes as well as with LX-200
compatibles, but I dunno if anyone has actually tried them out yet.)
