Navigating AutoStar II

Press ENTER to go deeper into AutoStar II’s menu levels.
Press MODE to move back toward the top menu level.
Press Number key “1” to engage the Speed mode, and then press Number keys
1 through 9 to change speeds.
Press Number key “4” to access the Focus menu.
Press Number key “7” to access the Reticle menu.
Press the Scroll keys to move up and down through the options or lists.

Press the Help (?) key to access on-line help.
Tip:
When multiple choices
are available within a
menu option, the current
option is usually
displayed first and
highlighted by a right
pointing arrow (>).
Look into the Future
The AutoStar II Date option in the Setup menu is much more than just an entry
of today’s date; with it you can look far into the future or learn about past events.
AutoStar II can calculate the date and times of future events and, except for
eclipses, past events as well (based on the current calendar system).
E.g.,
a
Sunrise on March 6, 2043 A.D. or the Vernal Equinox in 1776 A.D. To use this
feature, enter the desired date in the Setup menu or select an option in the
Event menu.
AutoStar II, using the Event menu, can calculate dates and times for Sunrises,
Sunsets, Moonrises, Moonsets, Moonphases, Solar and Lunar Eclipses (for
the next 100 years), meteor showers, equinoxes and solstices, and the
minimums of Algol.
One very practical use of the Event menu is to check the Sunset option to
determine when you can begin your astronomical observing session.
