MKS6000 upgrade on ME-II/OAE


MKS6000 upgrade on ME-II/OAE

Cleaned and re-lubricated RA/DEC while had ME-II apart and got MKS6000 kit installed. For tape encoder connections to MKS6000 (different pin-out connector from MKS5000) Bisque provided two small circuit board adapters rather than short wiring harness ‘cross-over’ adapters. Since new style has XT60 to electronics box I pulled out my existing thru-mount 12V (powerpole connections) versus leaving as ‘backup’ for 12V path. I left my two USB3 thru-mount cables.
