Up to Date with an Obsolete Serial Cable

by Pirich , Feb 24, 2008
Pros: Will connect a computer to a NexStar controller.
Cons: Obsolete interface, mixed compatibility, high geek factor.
The Bottom Line: It lets you hook up to a NexStar scope, but the only reason you really need to is the 1 or 2 firmware updates you can expect.
This reviewer does not recommend this product.
Review: The Celestron RS-232 NexStar Serial Cable is one of those peculiar products which make me ask myself, "Isn't there some way I can do without this?" RS-232 is long in the tooth- to the point where it is starting to disappear from computers altogether...
