Guiding cable question

[gordonewen]

I want to use a DMK webcam for guiding with PHD software. How do I connect my laptop (only USB ports) to the ST4 port on my scope mont? Where can I get the cable (assuming there is one)? Any help greatly appreciated.

Shoestring have a GPUSB dongle that does the usb to ST4 connection. I have one for my 12" Lx200 and it works very well.

You can still use PHD and Al's reticle for guiding.
