Celestron StarSense Autoguider Bedienungsanleitung

INSTRUCTION MANUAL
ENGLISH
With the Celestron StarSense Autoguider, using a Celestron telescope
for astroimaging has never been easier. This all-in-one accessory can
help with every aspect of telescope alignment and tracking. With your
new StarSense Autoguider (SSAG), you can:
• Automatically align your equatorial or altazimuth telescope to the night
sky in just a few minutes. Once aligned, your telescope will find and
center objects with enhanced pointing accuracy.
• Guide your telescope accurately during long astroimaging exposures
without any additional alignment required (not even polar alignment).
• Quickly and accurately polar align your equatorial mount, if desired.
Please read this manual before setting up and using your StarSense
Autoguider. You can find the most current version of this instruction
manual on the StarSense Autoguider product page at celestron.com.
WARNING -
Never point the StarSense Autoguider at the Sun! Doing
so will damage SSAG's image sensor. This damage is not covered under
your warranty. Keep SSAG's cover cap on during the day.
WARNING: DO NOT PLUG STARSENSE AUTOGUIDER INTO YOUR
MOUNT'S AUTOGUIDER PORT!
Always connect StarSense Autoguider to
one of your mount's AUX ports. Connecting it to the Autoguider port
could damage StarSense Autoguider.

2. Installation
StarSense Autoguider connects to your optical tube using one of the two
supplied brackets (i.e., the large bracket or the small bracket). Use the
large bracket with Schmidt-Cassegrain, EdgeHD, and RASA telescopes
with 5" or more of aperture (Fig. 2).
Fig. 2: The large bracket and base connect SSAG to Celestron Schmidt-Cassegrain,
EdgeHD, and RASA telescopes 5" or larger.
Use the small bracket with other telescopes that have a standard dovetail
base for a finderscope (Fig. 3).
Small bracket
Fig. 3: If your telescope already has a standard finder base, you can use the small
bracket to mount SSAG on your telescope.
If you are using a telescope smaller than 5" in aperture, and your
telescope does not have a standard dovetail base you must purchase a
standard dovetail base from a third-party supplier.
