VISUAL ACCESSORIES
THE STAR DIAGONAL
The star diagonal diverts the light at a right angle from the
light path of the telescope This allows you to observe in
positions that are more comfortable than if you were to look
straight through
To attach the star diagonal:
1 Turn the thumbscrew on the visual back so that the screw
clears the opening on the visual back
2 Slide the chrome barrel of the star diagonal into the opening
3 Tighten the thumbscrew on the visual back to hold the star
diagonal in place Do not overtighten
If you wish to change the orientation of the star diagonal,
loosen the thumbscrew on the visual back until the star
diagonal rotates freely Rotate the diagonal to the desired
position and tighten the thumbscrew
THE EYEPIECE
The eyepiece, or ocular, is the optical element that magnifies the image focused by the telescope The eyepiece can either fit
into the visual back directly or into the star diagonal
To install the eyepiece:
1 Loosen the thumbscrew on the star diagonal so that the screw clears the opening on the star diagonal
2 Slide the chrome barrel of the eyepiece into the star diagonal opening
3 Tighten the thumbscrew on the star diagonal to hold the eyepiece in place
Eyepieces are commonly referred to by focal length and barrel diameter The focal length of each eyepiece is printed on the
eyepiece barrel The longer the focal length (i e , the larger the number), the lower the eyepiece's power or magnification is The
shorter the focal length (i e , the smaller the number), the higher the magnification is Generally, you will use low-to-moderate
power when viewing To determine an eyepiece's power when used with your telescope, use this simple equation: Focal Length
of Telescope ÷ Focal Length of eyepiece = Magnification For example, if your telescope has a focal length of 700mm and you
are using an eyepiece with a 25mm focal length, your equation will look like this: 700mm ÷ 25mm =28X For more information,

The NexStar SE series uses eyepieces with industry-standard 1 25" barrel diameters You may also use eyepieces with a 2"
diameter, but you'll need an optional 2" star diagonal
THE STARPOINTER RED DOT FINDERSCOPE
Your NexStar SE telescope includes a StarPointer red dot finderscope The StarPointer is a zero-magnification pointing tool
that uses a coated glass window to superimpose the image of a small red dot onto the night sky The red dot is produced by
a light-emitting diode (LED), not a laser beam, so it and cannot damage the glass window or your eye It is equipped with a
variable brightness control, two axes alignment control and a quick-release dovetail mounting bracket Before you can use the
StarPointer, it must be installed on the telescope tube and properly aligned
To install the StarPointer finderscope:
1 Loosen the two mounting screws near the bottom of the finderscope
2 Locate the dovetail mounting bracket on the rear cell of the optical tube
3 Slide the base of the finderscope over the dovetail mounting bracket
4 Tighten the screws to secure the finderscope in place
Your StarPointer red dot finderscope is shipped with a clear plastic tab between the lithium battery (CR2032) and the contact
to prevent the battery from accidentally being discharged during shipment Pull this tab out before using your finderscope
