Instruction Manual

field of view begins to slowly drift across the eyepiece field. This motion

is caused by the rotation of the Earth on its axis. Objects appear to move

through the field more rapidly at higher powers. See TRACKING OBJECTS,

page 10, for detailed information on how you can counteract the drift in the

field of view.

Activate the Arrow Keys

The arrow keys of the handbox allow you to slew (move) the telescope up,

down, right, or left. The following procedure describes how to activate the arrow

keys:

1. After the batteries are installed and the cord is plugged into the HBX port

of computer control panel (A, Fig 1d), a copyright message lights on the

handbox LCD display (1, Fig. 2).

2. A message warning not to look at the Sun scrolls across the display. Press

the key prompted by the handbox to acknowledge that the Sun warning has

been read and understood.

3. Press ENTER (2, Fig. 2) repeatedly until „Country/State“ appears on the

display. (Ignore the prompts requesting Date and Time. See INITIALIZING

HANDBOX, page 16, for more information).

4. Use the Scroll keys (7, Fig. 2) to cycle through the database of countries,

states, and provinces. Press ENTER when the correct location displays.

5. The handbox then prompts you to enter the nearest city (listed alphabeti-

cally) to the observing site. Use the Scroll keys to cycle through the data-

base of cities. Press ENTER when the correct city appears on the display.

6. The handbox then prompts you to enter the model number of your tele-

scope. Use the Scroll keys to cycle through the list of telescope models.

Press ENTER when the correct model appears on the display.

7. The display then reads „Align: Easy.“ You now can use handbox‘s Arrow

keys to move the telescope to observe.

Note: If you go past the „Align: Easy“ (or any other menu display you

wish to select), press MODE to return to the previous display(s).

8. Press the Arrow keys (5, Fig. 2) to move the telescope up, down, right, or

left. You can move the telescope at different speeds.

Slew Speeds

The handbox has nine slew speeds that move the optical tube at rates that are

directly proportional to the sidereal rate and have been calculated to accomplish

specific functions. Press a Number key (6, Fig. 2) to change the slew speed,

which is shown for about two seconds on handbox’s display.

The nine available speeds are:

Number Key 1 = Guide (0.25 arc-min/sec or 0.004°/sec)

Number Key 2 = 2x = 2 x sidereal (0.5 arc-min/sec or 0.008°/sec)

Number Key 3 = 8x = 8 x sidereal (2 arc-min/sec or 0.033°/sec)

Number Key 4 = 16x = 16 x sidereal (4 arc-min/sec or 0.067°/sec)

Number Key 5 = 64x = 64 x sidereal (16 arc-min/sec or 0.27°/sec)

Number Key 6 = 128x = 30 arc-min/sec or 0.5°/sec

Number Key 7 = 1.5° = 90 arc-min/sec or 1.5°/sec

Number Key 8 = 3° = 180 arc-min/sec or 3°/sec

Number Key 9 = Max = 270 arc-min/sec or 4.5°/sec

Speeds 1, 2, or 3: Best used for fine centering of an object in the field of view

of a higher power eyepiece, such as a 12mm or a 9mm eyepiece.

Speeds 4, 5, or 6: Enables centering an object in the field of a low-to-moderate

power eyepiece, such as the standard Super Plössl 26mm.

Speeds 7 or 8: Best used for rough centering of an object in the viewfinder.

Speed 9: Moves the telescope quickly from one point in the sky to another.

Note: The handbox only

prompts you to enter

Country (or State) and

City as described in

steps 3, 4, and 5, the first

time it is activated. These

prompts do not appear

again, unless you reset

the handbox (see RESET,

page 24).

However, if you need to

re-enter this information

(e.g., you change your

geographic location), you

can change the location

information by using the

Site option of the Setup

menu. See ADDING

OBSERVING SITES

, page

25, for detailed informa-

tion.

The Site option „Zip

code“ works for U.S. cit-

ies only. Users in Europe,

please enter the „City“

option.
