Help! My SkyWatcher Auto Focuser just died


Recommended Posts

So I was playing with my setup and configuring my HiTecAstro USB focuser so I could move my focuser with my gamepad and suddenly the SW Auto Focuser stops responding and moving completely.

 

I've tested with my hand control that comes with the auto focuser too and it's not responding there either.

 

The HitecAstro box is hooked up straight to 12V with a cigarette plug. Can I possibly have broken something simply by sending commands to the focuser through the RJ cable? Is there anything I can do or is my unit bust?

How frustrating. Any ideas... I'd like to avoid buying a new unit.

Never mind, I wiggled the focuser knob a little bit and somehow now the auto focuser could move again. Maybe this will be helpful for someone in the same predicament in the future..
