StarGPS NX for Meade LX200 Telescopes
StarGPS NX for Meade LX200 Telescopes Add GPS to your Meade LX200 Telescopes! Imagine the possiblities if your telescope could access the Global Positioning System… so that it always knew when and where you were observing from. No more checking your watch. No more looking up site coordinates or fiddling with the keypad to enter the date, time, latitude and longitude. StarGPS has solved your problems! It utilizes a single cable to connect your telescope to a GPS receiver smaller than a computer mouse and automatically input these values – making your telescope setup much easier and more precise! StarGPS-NX is a “plug-and-play” solution for use with the Celestron NexStar, Meade Autostar, LX200 Classic, and Losmandy Gemini telescopes. It includes a GPS-NX02 receiver and the proper cable for your telescope. No software is required since the GPS receiver outputs commands and data the telescope already understands. Simply connect the GPS to your telescope, turn on the scope, and watch the GPS LED. The PS/2 plug connects to the GPS. The RJ12 plug connects to the RS232 port on the telescope (for GPS power and data).
