Right-angle plug prevents collision with azimuth adjusters Designed for Software Bisque Paramount ME, ME II, MX, MX+, and MYT mounts Essential for observers at high latitudes Professionally manufactured for a secure connection Description FAQ Specifications Warranty Software Bisque Right Angle Power Cable The Software Bisque Right Angle Power Cable, weighing 1 lbs and shipping in a compact 9 × 8 × 3 in package, solves a critical clearance issue for Paramount mount users observing at high latitudes where the standard power plug can interfere with the azimuth adjuster. A 90-Degree Solution for High-Latitude Paramount Setups For astronomers using Paramount mounts at high latitudes, the physical geometry of the setup can create a frustrating problem: the standard, straight-in power cable can collide with the mount's azimuth adjustment knobs. This interference can limit travel, put stress on the power port, or cause an unexpected loss of power during a slew. This right-angle power cable is the definitive solution, changing the cable's exit path to run parallel to the mount body, ensuring it remains clear of any hardware through all axes of motion. Which Software Bisque mounts is the Right Angle Power Cable compatible with? This cable is designed for the power input port on Software Bisque Paramount ME, ME II, MX, MX+, and MYT mounts. It specifically addresses the common clearance issue between the standard power plug and the azimuth adjustment hardware on these models. Why do I need the Software Bisque Right Angle Power Cable? If you operate your Paramount mount at high latitudes, the angle of the polar axis can cause a standard straight power plug to physically hit the azimuth adjuster. The Software Bisque Right Angle Power Cable prevents this collision, protecting the port from damage and ensuring a reliable power connection. I'm setting up my Paramount MYT in Alaska. Is the Right Angle Power Cable necessary? Yes, for any setup at high latitudes like those in Alaska, this cable is a highly recommended accessory. It ensures your power connection remains secure and does not foul on the azimuth adjustment hardware, which is a significant risk at those locations. Will the Software Bisque Right Angle Power Cable improve my Paramount MX+'s slew speed? No, the cable itself does not affect slew speed. This cable is an ergonomic accessory for the optional 220W power supply, which is what enables maximum slew rates on the Paramount MX+ and MYT mounts. The cable ensures you can use that power supply without physical interference. Does the Software Bisque Right Angle Power Cable include the power supply? No, this product is the cable only. It is intended for use with the 220W power supply that comes standard with the Paramount ME II or is sold separately as an optional upgrade for the Paramount MX+ and MYT. Is the Software Bisque Right Angle Power Cable difficult to install? Installation is extremely simple. It plugs directly into the mount's power port just like the standard cable. No tools or modifications are required. Weight 1 lbs Dimensions 9 × 8 × 3 in Software Bisque 2-Year Warranty
