Instruction Manual
Fig. 2: The handbox.
Tour the Cosmos with Just the Push of a Button
Control of the telescope mount is through the operation of the handbox. Nearly
all functions of the telescope are accomplished with just a few pushes of the
buttons. Some of the major features of the handbox are:
• Automatic GO TO capability: Automatically move the telescope to any of the
more than 30,000 objects stored in the object library.
• Take a guided tour of the best celestial objects to view on any given night of
the year.
• Access a glossary of astronomical terms.
• Fully automatic tracking of celestial objects.
Features
The Computer Controller provides control of virtually every telescope function
within a compact handbox. The handbox has soft-touch keys designed to have
a positive feel. The LCD (Liquid Crystal Display) is backlit with a red LED (Light
Emitting Diode) for easy viewing in the dark. The backlit display, key arrangement,
and sequential menu structure make the handbox extremely user friendly.
B 2-Line LCD Display: This screen displays the menu structure and other
information about the telescope.
• Top line: Lists the primary menu.
• Bottom line: Contains other menus that may be selected, menu options,
telescope status, or information about a function that is currently being per-
formed.
C ENTER Key: Press to go to the next menu level or to choose an option in
a menu. The ENTER key is similar to the RETURN or ENTER key on a com-
puter. See
MOVING THROUGH THE MENUS, page 12 and MENUS AND MENU
OPTIONS.
Note: If ENTER is pressed for two seconds or more and then
released, the handbox emits a beep and “ENTER to Sync” is dis-
played. „ENTER to Sync“ may be used only after your telescope
has been aligned and is pointing at an object. See page 16 for more
details.
D MODE Key: Press to return to the previous menu level. The top menu level is
“Select Item.“ The MODE key is similar to the ESCAPE key on a computer.
The Handbox
Note: The handbox does
not require batteries; the
telescope’s batteries sup-
ply power to the handbox.
