Pegasus Astro External Motor Controller

The Pegasus Astro 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” or “Pocket Powerbox Micro“.

The device does not require a USB cable and can be attached directly to the EXT port of these Powerboxes. It can drive a large bipolar or unipolar stepper motor (up to 2Amps per coil) with high precision.

Supported Motors:

Please note that each motor requires its own cable due to different pin-out selection of each manufacturer.
