Hello everybody;

It's the first time I post on this list.


I've experienced some problems with a autoguider pictor 201 XT. I've bought
the APM909 (auxiliary port module) for connecting the pictor to the LX90,
but when i connect thepictor to the APM, the LX90 move in Dec !!

So, i've verified that the APM module was OK and it's OK, I mean, when
disconnect to the pictor, I simulate a autoguider entry in the APM and the
LX90 move in RA/DEC/...

So, I'm supposed it's a problem of cable between the pictor and the APM.

Can someone give me the good cable connection to make between the pictor
201XT and the APM909 or dos someone have the shema of the APM909 ?

PS : I supposed the APM909 is necessary for the connection.

Thank's a lot
