Instruction Manual

b. Lunar: Choose this option to properly track the Moon over long

observing sessions.

c. Custom: Allows entry of user-defined tracking rates.

• Reverse L/R: Reverses the functions of the Left and Right Arrow keys (i.e.,

the Right key moves the telescope to the left).

• Reverse U/D: Reverses the functions of the Up and Down Arrow keys (i.e.,

the Up key moves the telescope down).

• Quiet Slew: Sets the maximum slew rate to 1.5° for quieter operation.

• Max Elevation: Allows you to enter a value in degrees that sets a limit as

to how far the optical tube can swing upward during a programmed slew.

(Note that it does not prevent you from performing a manual slew past this

limit.) This is useful when you have a camera or other peripheral attached

to the telescope — you can prevent it from striking the telescope base.

• Min AOS (Acquisition of Signal): Allows you enter a value in degrees. This

value represents the altitude at which your telescope begins to slew when

acquiring a satellite track. This is useful when you are observing satel-

lites, but a tall tree or building is obstructing the telescope. For example,

you might begin to track the satellite at 15° altitude, instead of 5°. See

OBSEVING SATELLITES, page 34, for more information about satellites.

• Calibrate Motor: If the telescope motors appear to have a problem, use

this option to retest the motors before performing a Reset. This option is

also used if a handbox unit is moved between telescopes, to match the

handbox to the new telescope. To calibrate the motors, select this option

and press ENTER.

• Smart Drive: Allows you to perform periodic error correction (PEC) on the

R.A. drive worm gear. Must be performed with a high-power reticle (eg.,

9mm).

• High Precision: If High Precision is turned on, when looking for a faint

celestial object (i.e., a nebula or galaxy), handbox first slews to a nearby

bright star and displays „ENTER to Sync.“ Center the star in the eyepiece,

then press ENTER. At that point the telescope has a high precision align-

ment to that part of the sky and it then slews to the object that was origi-

nally requested.

Targets switches between Astronomical targets and Terrestrial targets. If

„Astronomical“ is selected, the telescope tracking motor is activated and

any object you observe will remain centered in the eyepiece. If „Terrestrial“

is selected, the tracking motor is turned off. To learn how to track an object

automatically, see page 16.

Site provides access to several options including:

• Select: Displays the currently selected observing site. Use the Scroll keys

to cycle through all available sites (see ADD below). Press ENTER when

the site you wish to select displays. Use this option when you move to a

different geographic location.

• Add: Allows you to add new observing sites to the database (up to six sites

may be stored). Scroll through the list of Countries/States. Press ENTER

when the site you wish to add displays. Then choose the desired city in the

same manner.

• Delete: Deletes a stored site from the database.

• Edit: Edits a selected site, including: the name, latitude, longitude, and

time zone. Time Zone refers to the Greenwich Mean Time (GMT) time zone

shift. Users West of Greenwich, England use “-” hours, East of Greenwich

use “+” hours. For the United States, look up the time zone shift in Table

Note: The handbox compensates for daylight savings time,

if selected. See SETUP MENU: DAYLIGHT SAVING, page 22.

Owner Info accesses the owner information menu, including:

• Name: Users may enter both their first and last names using the Up and

Down Arrow keys to cycle through the alphabet. Use the Right and Left

Arrow keys to move through the text. Press ENTER when the entry is com-

plete.

Tip:

If the „ENTER to Sync“

feature is accessed by

mistake (holding the

ENTER key for more than

2 seconds), press MODE

to return to the previous

screen.

sites? See page 25.

Tip:

The Reverse L/R and U/D

functions are useful if

you are observing in the

Southern hemisphere.
