If your M2 rotator controller is connected to your PC, DXView will give you
"point and shoot" capability; it's free, and available via www.dxabsuite.com

The cost of a Green Heron box is $559 plus shipping.
The cost of engineering a Green Heron-esque mod for an existing control box
would likely far exceed that, which may explain why M2 isn't interested in
reinventing Green Heron's wheel.
That said, it's possible someone has already done that and you're home free.
Otherwise, the most cost-effective solution could well be ponying up for a
Green Heron.
I say this having no connection to Green Heron at all.
