CCD Connector
The CCD Port (10, Fig. 7) allows direct interface
from popular aftermarket CCD autoguiding/imaging
cameras with their compatible connecting
cables to accomplish autoguiding for non-attended
astrophotography. The CCD cameras effectively
watch a star and detect slight movements.
When star movements are detected, signals
from the CCD electronics make drive corrections
in the LX200, to bring the star to a home
position.
Most CCD autoguiding/imaging cameras are
supplied with a cable which is compatible
with the LX200 port. If your CCD unit does
not have a cable, one can be obtained from
the CCD manufacturer, or you can make your
own cable using the following table of information.
