Track The Stars is a Danish telescope mount manufacturer. The mounts are the TTS-160 Panther and TTS-300 Mammoth, two Alt-Azimuth telescope mounts with top-mounting saddles. The Alt-Az design gives it multiple advantages over Equatorial Mounts. These include no polar alignment, 4-minute set up, top mount saddle, no meridian flip, compact design, precise go-to and tracking, and much more.
Hi Neils.
I purchased the TTS-160 back in November 2017
I’ve just purchased a SkiFi unit (the same as on the connection blog page) but i don’t have a cable like that ?
You show a coiled telephone type cable. Can i get one from anywhere ?
I am not sure where to source one from, and am worried about getting something incompatible with the incorrect voltage, and damaging the unit or mount (or both)
Thanks, hope you can help.

Hi Robert,
The serial connection cable has the same configuration as the Meade LX90/ETX/Autostar serial cable. You should be able to get that many places. The 2 meter long serial cable that came with the Panther mount can also be used but a shorter cable is more practical for the SkyFi unit.
