Re: CI-700

Hello Jerry,

> Does this control unit support the Celestron CI-700?

Yes, you can use either the existing stepper motors, or you can
replace them by ESCAP P530 motors with 12:1 gearbox.
The drawback of the original motors is the large gear ratio, which
allows only small slewing speed.

> Can the worm be indexed for PPE?

no.

> Can Pempro be used to create, save and load a pec table?

I'm unsure, because I have never tested it.


> Is FS2 supported by an ASCOM driver for software such as The
> Sky 6?

Yes, that's possible. Please have a look at the instructions on the
webiste: http://www.astro-electronic.de/software.htm
You can either set the telescope type to "LX200", or you can use the
ASCOM driver.

Michael
