Digital Cameras Photo Reviews of Celestron Nexstar RS 232 PC Interface Cable

Customer Review: Works perfectly
Summary: 5 Stars

My laptop doesn't have an RS-232 port (as usual) so I had buy a USB to RS232 converter (on ebay). After installing the proper ASCOM driver, my Celestron NexStar 114 can nicely be controlled from SkyMap. Just click on a star on the chart and the telescope slews there. Position/time synchronization is also really easy.
NOTE: Before you buy this item, do find out what an RS-232 port is, and if your computer doesn't have one, buy an adapter first.

Description of Celestron Nexstar RS 232 PC Interface Cable

The RS-232 serial cable connects to the Nexstar hand controller and to the drive base port of some Shmidt Cassegrain Telescopes. The other end connects into a computer. One end of the cable is a phone type jack, (RS-232) and the other end is a standard serial computer input.With CD ROM software this cable will enable your computer laptop or desktop to interface and control the telescope by pointing and clicking on sky maps shown on the computer monitor. With certain telescopes the cable allows downloading additional data from the Celestron website into the database of the Nexstar computer hand control.
