Re: Connecting ArgoNavis to ServoCAT failed.


 

Hi Mike,

Firstly check the LED on the ServoCAT labelled DSC.

When you first interface Argo Navis and ServoCAT and power the two on, that DSC LED should begin blinking.
The two units have an initial little chit chat with each other and the ServoCAT then blinks the DSC LED to denote that communication
between the two is successful.

After a completed successful star alignment, the DSC LED should go steady ON.

Argo Navis has two serial ports, SERIAL 1 and SERIAL 2. Double check that the cable is plugged into the correct serial port.
Verify that you are using the correct cable to interface between the two. Whilst there are other cables that look similar, they will
almost certainly be wired differently and not work.
Since Argo Navis has two serial ports, you could also configure the "other" port to have a STARTUP of navis and a BAUD rate of 19200,
power the unit OFF, move the cable to the "other" port and then see whether the ServoCAT DSC LED flashes.

Email us if you require further assistance.
