Question Computer Driven Focusser for Skywatcher Pro 150
I have a Skywatcher Pro 150 MAK sitting on a LXD75 mount controlled by an Autostar 497. In the eye piece is a NexImage LPI with a 2x barlow.

All this is connected upto a laptop running Starry Night Pro and seems to be working nicely.

What I'm after now is a way to control the focus from the laptop as well so I can sit indoors and control the laptop fom my desktop in my study.

Has anybody got any ideas where or how to control the focus from a computer on this scope?

Cheers
