Star Sense Auto Align for my SE-8

Post by pbalvin »


I already have a motor focuser plugged into the aux port. StarSense Auto Align uses the aux port. If possible how can I have both?

I'm not familiar with either item but does either have a loop through or pass through?

There is a Celestron Auxiliary Port Splitter, (item #93919. I have to read up on that and see if it would work.

The 93919 should work. I had one once and used it on an SE mount with success.
