Sync; Polar Align - Celestron StarSense Autoalign Handbuch

SYNC

Syncing on a star will shift the mount model to the
star position . It will improve GoTo pointing in the
region of sky close to the star you synced on . Sync
can also be used if the mount was bumped or the
clutches were loosened for either axis . Sync will
restore the position of the StarSense GoTo without
using the camera .
1. With a named star selected, press OPTION and
ALIGN simultaneously .
2. Coarse center the star in your finder or eyepiece
and press ENTER .
3. Fine center the star in your eyepiece, finishing in
the UP and RIGHT directions and press ALIGN .

POLAR ALIGN

This feature aligns the mount through the hand
controller, using any of the named stars in its
database, essentially eliminating the need for a
polar axis finder . Polar Align is use for Equatorial
mounts, or wedge-mounted Altazimuth mounts
only . Polar Align must be performed after a
StarSense Auto or StarSense Manual Align . We
recommend you also add multiple Cal Reference
points to improve the mount model, thereby
improving the polar alignment when adjustments
are made to the mount .
1. After your mount's GoTo is aligned, Press
ALIGN, scroll UP/DOWN, and select Polar
Align and press ENTER .
2. The screen will display the polar alignment
error of your mount . Press ENTER and select a
named star from the list, then press ENTER to
slew to that star .

adjustments . The direction buttons are locked
out at this time to prevent accidentally moving
the motors in the mount .
5. Press ENTER to complete the polar alignment .
For best accuracy, perform another StarSense
Auto alignment .
