Anyone have the pinouts for a Celestron PC port on the Nexstar so I can
make a cable ?


What do you actually want to do?.
If you want to control the scope from a program like Maxim, SkyMap etc., you
need to connect to the handset port, not the PC port. The PC port is
designed for software updates. It _can_ be used to control the scope, if you
use the HcAnywhere software (which emulates the functionality of the hand
controller, and sends the required commands to the PC port). This software
is now marketed by Celestron, as 'NexRemote'. The pinout for the PC port, is
on the Celestron website, with the programming information (since the port
is designed for this). If you goto:
http://www.celestron.com/support/dow...htm#MOTORDRIVE
Near the bottom of the page under 'other downloads', you will find the cable
diagram available to downlod.
