The PegasusAstro eXternal Motor Controller (XMC) was designed to expand the focus capabilities of the Ultimate Powerbox v2 (supports a 2nd focus controller) and adds focus functionality to the Pocket Powerbox Advance. The device does not require a USB cable and can be attached directly to the EXT port of the Powerboxes. It can drive a large bipolar or unipolar stepper motor (up to 2Amps per coil) with high precision.

No USB port is required
You do not have to occupy a USB port as the controller does not require a USB connectivity. Just plug the RJ12 plug into the EXT port of the Powerbox and the controller will be recognized from the Powerbox software. Simple as that!
(Note: The device will also occupy one of the 12V power outputs of the Powerbox).
Microstepping
Controller support micro-stepping which can be configured via software to Full, Half, 1/4 step and 1/8 step. This provides additional precision and a smooth rotation from the stepper motor.
Second EXT port
A second EXT port on the device allows you to daisy chain future equipment or connect your environmental sensor.
Protections
The controller is fully protected against undervoltage, overcurrent, and overtemperature events.
