Celestron focus motor for SCT and Edge-HD

Celestron focus motor for SCT and Edge-HD

Description:
The Celestron Focus Motor V2 enables precise, remote-controlled focusing for SCT, EdgeHD, and RASA optical tubes. It draws power either through a Celestron mount AUX port or directly via USB, removing the need for a separate power source. It's ideal for astrophotographers and visual observers seeking hands-free focusing with high precision.

This motor provides multiple speed settings, indexed position tracking, and backlash compensation. It works with the Focuser Utility software, Celestron PWI, and third-party ASCOM-compatible applications. Port covers are tethered to prevent loss.

Now compatible with the 9.25” EdgeHD. Note: not compatible with the C5 or with Off-Axis Guider on 6” SCT.
