Wireless focuser Control

Development:

It was thought to develop a wireless system for remote control of the telescopes focuser, for this reason a circuit was designed based on the IC2262 / 2272 module. Below are some images of its development.

.

General detail of the circuit and its main parts:

A signal amplifier had to be made for the IC 2262/2272 module since the received signal was not enough to activate the relays that allow current to be brought to the focuser motor.

.

Remote control:

The remote control's antenna was changed to one with a longer range and two channels, "B" and "D" were used to input and output the focuser.

.

Mounting:

A connector box of the RJ45 type was mounted on the telescope to be able to link the control unit; and the connections of the beginning and end of the race were reconfigured adapting them to the new version of wireless control.
