    It's hard to believe that Celestron still sells a telescope which requires that you enter the date and time every time you use it. It reminds me of an old IBM PC from 1982.

      You don’t - the GPS in your scope will automatically give you coordinates and time, which you need to confirm. That’s it.
      Just a note: if instead of the hand control you use your computer, then you need to enter the site informations the first time. Pretty easy.
      Well this is at least the case with my CPC.

    I have found that you need to make sure your scope stand is level before doing the Sky Align. I use the provide round level tool to make sure the level bubble is in the center of the red circle. You can adjust the leg extensions to get it level. One time saving trick I came up, is to level the stand on a flat level surface. Then with a magic marker I drawl a line on the extension leg against the black plastic adjustment housing of each of the three legs. That way, when I set up on a surface like a sidewalk or parking lot that is level I just extend the legs to the mark I made. Helps me to save a few minutes when setting up.

      This is in reference to the internal gearing of the drive mechanism since the procedure being mentioned is to control 'gear lash'. So, it's in reference to the optical tube that is being moved to align with the object of interest...meaning you simply use the buttons on the paddle as they appear and press the up and right arrow buttons last.

      @@mesenteria unless I'm misreading your reply, it sounds like you have the same difficulty tbh. Since (only) when the scope is moving in slow speed - as it most likely is when making final positioning adjustments - hitting the "right" arrow, moves the front of the OTA to the left. At other speeds it does not have this reversal. And since the directions do not acknowledge that reversal at slow speed, and iirc the speed is not specified, it is left to Assumption, as to whether the effect is accounted for, and what we should actually do.

    I've been trying to do sky align using the celestron phone app, and it's been much more difficult than this. I seem to have to select the star that I'm trying to align to, but with this you don't. It's it best to just scrap aligning with the app, and just do this, or are you not supposed to select the star on the app the way it sends to be telling me to? I've unfortunately been struggling with alignment (brand new to the hobby) and it's been somewhat detracting from the enjoyment of it.

Some people might not know their coordinates or how to obtain them, but most of them would know the closest city from a list.

      You have to focus the view for your eye and for the eyepiece that is in place. If you have the star diagonal in place, and the largest mm eyepiece, the 25, installed in the top tube of the diagonal, you must use the focus knob to the right of the diagonal to focus whatever might be in view. This means turning the knob one way many times, or the other way, clockwise or anticlockwise, until you begin to see a brightening object. Slow down, keep going, and soon something will pop into cleaner focus.

      I believe that knowing your location, time, and date, by entering 1 star, slewing to the second and third star, by the relative movement to get to each star, it know where those three stars are compared to one another. It then compares to a database and figures out what three stars they are based on their relative positions and then can find all the stars and objects. It doesn't matter what stars they are because no matter what stars you pick, there is only combination of three stars at those relative positions anywhere in the sky.

      The place does not have to be exact, it can be several miles away and still use the same position ID.
      But if you move the scope/tripod, even slightly, then it is likely to be not in exactly the same alignment for the celestial objects. Confirm the scope is still level (with the bubble level) and then you may get away with re-alignment (of just one star or object). I suggest do a fresh alignment, a one-star alignment is probably all you will need to do.

    When looking through the eyepiece and using the hand remote to move it around is up actually down and Vice versa

    • @mercster
      @mercster 2 года назад

      Yes, with reflector telescopes the image is reversed and upside down. This is normal.

      You have to 'tell' your telescope where it is. For example you live in Indiana, but now you wish to use the scope while on vacation in Florida.

    i always use 3 star alignment , but it only works with an 18mm eyepiece , not 25mm probably as the 18mm is more accurate

    • @brianfulda
      @brianfulda 4 года назад

      That's simply not true, it works with a 25mm eyepiece just fine, but is just more accurate with an 18mm.

    • @azuredragon1978
      @azuredragon1978 4 года назад +6

      It has to do with backlash in the drive gears. If you move the scope in one direction, then move it back in the other, you will notice there is a moment where the gears have started turning, but the scope is not moving. That deadzone is backlash. By always approaching the star from the same direction, you factor out the backlash. The gears are always engaged and the scope is always moving when it thinks it is.
