I managed to borrow a proper controller and it works ok, as said in another reply i suspect the hc didn't work for the previous owner. I’m just trying to get the WiFi dongle, which also came with it, to work with my iPhone but but think there may be too many networks in the neighbourhood.

Unfortunately the kits second hand and since the previous owner alway used the WiFi dongle, I suspect they hand unit didn’t work for hi m either.

Hi Julian; Thank you for the response. I’ve got a serial to USB adapter being delivered, so I’m going to try that. I managed to borrow a proper Synscan hand controller and, thankfully, that one works. So both controllers which came with the mount have a fault, I may have to buy another controller but at least I know the mount’s ok. Thanks again Paul

Hi all I have a major problem with a heq5 mount I have both a synscan hand controller and the WiFi adapter, both with problems The HC when powered on the backlight comes on but no text and nothing happens when I press any of the direction keys The WiFi the SSD come up with ESP_xxxxxx and the app can’t connect. So I tried a borrowed syntrek controller which didn’t do anything either. ive tried a different power supply and different leads There is no sound from the mount at all, it looks like the mount has died. Has anyone got any ideas of a fix? Thanks
