The stainless steel tripod with height-adjustable legs can be adapted to the respective observing site. A \u003cb\u003ecounterweight\u003c\/b\u003e weighing 2 kg balances the weight of the telescope.

An integrated \u003cb\u003epolar finder\u003c\/b\u003e tunnel enables rough alignment with the celestial north pole. The setting can then be further improved using fine adjustment screws for polar altitude and azimuth. For particularly accurate polar alignment, an optional \u003cb\u003epolar finder scope\u003c\/b\u003e (Art. No. 0456103) is available. This allows the GoTo function, \u003cb\u003etracking\u003c\/b\u003e and \u003cb\u003eastrophotography\u003c\/b\u003e to work even more precisely.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAutomatic object search with the hand controller\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThe display and keypad of the \u003cb\u003ehand controller\u003c\/b\u003e form the central control interface of the mount. For initialisation, you perform a \u003cb\u003estar alignment\u003c\/b\u003e with one, two or three stars. In doing so, you centre the suggested stars in the eyepiece and confirm the position. After successful alignment, more than \u003cb\u003e100,000 stored objects\u003c\/b\u003e are available to choose from, which you can conveniently slew to at the touch of a button. These include planets, constellations as well as Messier, NGC, IC, Sh2 and SAO objects. You can also save your own celestial coordinates and slew to them precisely.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePrecise tracking for long nights of observation\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThe \u003cb\u003etracking\u003c\/b\u003e automatically keeps an object that has been slewed to in the field of view. You can choose between sidereal, solar and lunar rates to suit the respective observing target. Eight different slew speeds are available for manual positioning. A low-noise \u003cb\u003ebelt drive\u003c\/b\u003e with worm gear moves both axes smoothly. Via \u003cb\u003esynchronisation\u003c\/b\u003e, the mount aligns the position of a known object with the database. The additional \u003cb\u003eRA and DEC backlash compensation\u003c\/b\u003e calibrates the gear backlash of both axes, ensuring even greater precision.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eComputer control via USB-C and ASCOM\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eVia a \u003cb\u003eUSB-C interface\u003c\/b\u003e, you can also connect the \u003cb\u003ehand controller\u003c\/b\u003e to a computer.
