The EQMOD USB interface allows you to connect SkyWatcher mounts to the control computer bypassing the mount hand pad. Using the EQMOD software (freely downloadable from eq-mod.sourceforge.net) you can control the mount via a graphical interface that offers more features than the standard SkyWatcher mount hand pad. And it's the perfect accessory to control the telescope remotely using the EAGLE!
Our expert comment:
The EQMOD project consists of a suite of open source applications that can provide an alternative to the hand controller on supported German Equatorial Mounts. More information: http://eq-mod.sourceforge.net/
