I was working on a DIY EQDIR cable to control my HEQ5-PRO mount using my laptop running Carte Du Ciel planetarium software and EQMOD controller. The commonly used interface device is the TTL232R to USB connector. I could not find that connector, so I purchased a TTL2102 to USB thinking that as long as TTL link is achieved, I should be able to control the mount just fine. Below is the video I made tonight, I hope you all enjoy watching it.
