One of the frustrations of using my D-2114ATS is that when using it with a computer, there are only ports for the computer and Autostar, the LPI being plugged...
... If you have a Meade electronic focus unit, it would plug into the AUX port on the telescope's power panel, and would be controlled from the Autostar. If...
Hi, I don't know what you guys think of the Mead DS-2130AT scope but it's one that I own and have been pretty happy with it so far. I'm just a beginner and...

Recently, there has been a lengthy series of postings from someone on the "Telecsopes Discussion Group" who claims to have purchased a DS2130AT off E-Bay....
I agree...buyer beware. I bought mine from a retailer off Ebay and I guess I was fortunate enough to get an honest one. It came to me in great shape and ready...
Can anyone tell me what ACTUALLY initiates the motor unit failure message? My azimuth motor is locked in this state, after I had it completely apart to mend a...
Matthew, The encoder is what causes the motor unit fault. There is a light emitting diode that the encoder must spin near. When the encoder blocks the light...
