Hello i was wanting to ask you if you can help me please
i want to build some projects to control parts on my telescope using my laptop because i do astro imaging
this is a list of what i want to do
1 control the focuser with a stepper motor from the PC with a read out display of wear the focus is also with a manual handset with left and right movement maybe even temperature compensated
2 i want to make a controller to turn on and of the dew heaters that stop dew getting on the scopes again control with a PC and a manual box 4 channel needed for 4 dew heaters
3 i want to make covers for the end of the scopes that open and shut with a stepper motor
and also inside the cover will be a light maybe WHITE LED that i want to turn on and of and also control the brightness from the PC
if you can sell me the parts to do this
i have been playing with a Demo program called profilab expert to do the program
will your boards work with it
the reason i like profile lab is i have no experience in programing to make the software to run the projects
the boards im looking at are
The VM110 interface board or k8055
the stepper motor card k8005
im not sure what to use for the 12 volt dew heaters
if anyone can help me please give me your input
Many Thanks Astro
