if moved by hand when powered on.
The hand ConTrol
The LCM’s hand controller is designed to give you instant
access to all the functions the telescope has to offer. With
automatic slewing to over 4,000 objects, and common sense
menu descriptions, even a beginner can master its variety
of features in just a few observing sessions. Below is a brief
description of the individual components of the LCM
hand controller:
1. Liquid Crystal Display (LCD) Window: Has a dual-line,
16 character display screen that is backlit for comfortable
viewing of telescope information and scrolling text.
2. Align: Instructs the LCM to use a selected star or object as
an alignment position.
3. Direction Keys: Allows complete control of the telescope in
any direction. Use the direction keys to center objects in the
StarPointer finderscope and eyepiece.
4. Catalog Keys: The hand control has a key on the hand
control to allow direct access to each of the catalogs in its
4,000+ object database. The hand control contains the
following catalogs in its database:
Messier – Complete list of all Messier objects.
NGC – Many of the brightest deep sky objects from the
Revised New General Catalog.
Caldwell – A combination of the best NGC and IC
objects.
Planets - All 8 planets in our Solar System plus the
Moon and Sun.
Stars – A compiled list of the brightest stars from the
SAO catalog.
List – For quick access, all of the best and most popular
objects in the database have been broken down into
lists based on their type and/or common name:
Named Stars Common name listing of the brightest
stars in the sky.
Named Objects Alphabetical listing of over 50 of the
most popular deep sky objects.
Double Stars Alphabetical listing of the most
visually stunning double, triple and
quadruple stars in the sky.

Asterisms A unique list of some of the most
recognizable star patterns in the sky.
5. Info: Displays coordinates and useful information about
objects selected from the database.
6. Tour: Activates the tour mode, which seeks out all the
best objects for a given month and automatically slews the
telescope to those objects.
7. Enter: Pressing Enter allows you to select any of the
LCM functions, accept entered parameters and slew the
telescope to displayed objects.
8. Undo: Undo will take you out of the current menu and
display the previous level of the menu path. Press Undo
repeatedly to get back to a main menu or use it to erase
data entered by mistake.
