I'm a bit reluctant to implement them without being present in person to see where the scope is definitively moving to. I haven't got around to testing the Arrow Keys yet. I used CommandBlind workarounds to fill the gap, but they should really be added to future release of the MeadeGeneric driverĪlthough Weasner's page is for the ETX the EK85 and EK68 commands work with my LX200GPS/R. I've built the Virtual Handbox, but I found a couple of key omissions from the list of action parameters supported by MeadeGeneric Action 'Handbox' - as seen in Telescope.cs file from the current repository. (This started as a project to prove a workflow that will allow me to slew scope to my planned Park Position and then remotely Set Park Position to the Current Telescope Location) That's it - good luck and I Hope this helps.I've built myself a virtual handbox for the rare occasion that I need to remotely set a parameter in AutoStar II handbox that I would otherwise need to visit the Observatory to make the change. (NOTE) YOU WILL HAVE TO RE-INPUT THE TIME/DATE STATE AND YOUR INFO (NAME) At this point the hand box will be at the (press mode for menu or 0 to aline)ĩ. Another box will appear (DATA SUCCESSFULLY SENT TO AUTOSTAR) press OK. When finished, a box will appear Download complete (PRESS OK). It is best to have a ""wired connection"" (not wireless) because you may lose wireless connection.Ĩ. This will take about 1.5 to 2 hours depending on connection speed. At this point the firmware (IF ALL WENT WELL) should now be uploading to you scope. You will now see a 3rd and final box just click OK.

You will now see a box that has’ get info from At the top of the box you will see (version 4.2G) and drop down list where you can select your scope (LX200 GPS). On the left bottom it should say (READY) and on the right you will see two boxes, (Model:) lx200 gps and (hand box version.: (09a0)ĥ. NOTE: At the bottom of the ASU UPDATER BOX you will see a gray bar across the bottom. The scope is now in safe mode and the hand box reads ( DOWNLOADING DO NOT POWER OFF).Ĥ. As soon as the hand box lights up, (PRESS 999). usb to serial adapter- use the 6-pin to 6-pin flat cableģ.
Open ASU UPDATER if you get a dialog box that says an update is available (CLICK NO) """WARNING""" ONLY DO THIS IF YOUR SCOPE HAS THIS PROBLEM (09a0)!!!!!ġ. OK - Here are the steps to fix this problem. Version (5.9.2) this is for the light switch only DO NOT USE THIS UPDATE!!!!! After 3 days of sleepless late night reserch and calling Meade for help.
