With the use of two Adnaco products, it is possible to completely electrically isolate your imager and your computer. An added benefit of which is the ability to use a fiber optic connection, which is capable of longer distances and higher speeds that USB 3.0.
System isolation is important when the camera is placed in an electrically unsafe place, such as high altitude observatories susceptible to lightning. The fiber optics connection protects computers operating the camera from electrical damage the camera may endure.
There are thousands of camera lenses for sale. Each lens has important characteristics such as f/number and focal length. As well as lens mounting and modularity, the choice of which lens is best is often quite complicated.

The Kepler Image Time Stamp (KITS) is a product sold with the Kepler imaging system to provide precise time logs. the KITS can allow the Kepler imaging system to log exposure times extremely accurately because the duration is based of satellite feed rather than a local computer, which may have inaccuracies.
KITS reduces variability in time logging that may occur, and results in logging precision of +-1 microsecond.
