Appendix A: Installing the MKS 5000 USB Windows Driver

The Paramount MX’s MKS 5000 control system requires installation of a software driver before

TheSkyX

Professional Edition

can be used to control the mount.

Windows 7 Driver Installation

Inst Bisque Downloads page. This version includes the necessary MKS 5000 USB Windows driver file
named

MKS 5000 Driver.inf

Plug the mini USB cable into the USB port on the Electronics Box and the USB 2.0 connector into
a free USB port on the computer.

The Paramount MX must be turned on before the operating system will
recognize the built-in USB port on the Electronics Box.

Flip the Paramount MX power switch to the on position. Windows detects that a

Generic USB

Hub

is present and attempts to automatically find and install a driver for the device.

This step

will fail, showing the window in Figure 56

. Do not panic, this is normal and expected behavior.

Figure 56: Windows 7 shows this message after plugging in the MKS 5000 USB cable.

Click the Windows

Start

graphic, then click the

Devices and Printers

command. One of the

devices listed is a

Generic USB Hub

(Figure 57).
