I got so encouraged at Jose's success with the Nexstar 11 that I tried to hook-up my ST2000XM to a friend's 14" LX200... I hooked it up via a relay adapter box but could not get through the calibration... I went as long as a 60 second calibration time and nothing moved...

What am I doing wrong? They act as if they are not communicating... or is backlash that large?

Thanks!

I dont thihk you need the relay box. Did you try to hook the camera up straight to the R232 port. I'm pretty sure SBIG knows the LX200 command line and therefore no need for a relay box.
