Move the telescope tube in the correspon-

 

ding direction of the guide arrows. If you

 

are standing to the left of the telescope and

 

facing the same direction the telescope is

 

pointed, the guide arrows will exactly corre-

 

spond with the direction you should move

 

the telescope (Figure 9). Otherwise, if an

 

up arrow is displayed, move the telescope

 

tube upward, if a down arrow is displayed,

 

move the telescope tube downward, if a left

 

arrow is displayed, rotate the telescope

 

counterclockwise, and if a right arrow is

 

displayed, rotate the telescope clockwise.

 

There is a number next to each guide arrow

 

 

that indicates how far the telescope needs

 

to be moved to reach the selected object.

field of view. When both numbers reach zero, stop moving the telescope. The object will be within the field of view of a medium-low power eyepiece (25mm focal length or longer).

For example, look at Figure 10a, which shows an LCD screen for someone trying to locate M51, otherwise known as the Whirlpool Galaxy. The first arrow is pointing right and gives a number of 34. The second arrow is pointing up and displays the number 12. This means that the telescope tube should be moved to the right (clockwise) and up. When you are close to M51, the numbers will be displayed in tenths, as is shown in Figure 10b. When the numbers reach zero (Figure 10c), the telescope will be pointed right at the Whirlpool Galaxy.

Figure 10a-c.This sequence of pictures illustrate how the controller’s guide arrows will look as you are finding an object. (a.) When you are far away from the object, there will be a number (from 10 to 179) to the left of the guide arrows. (b.) When you are close to the object, each guide arrow will display a number on its immediate left (from 0 to 9) and immediate right (from 0 to 9); the number on the left is whole number increments, while the number on the right is in increments of tenths. This helps in making small movements to the telescope to pinpoint the object’s location. (c.) When the guide arrows display “0.0 0.0”, the object will be within the field of view of the telescope (with a 25mm or longer focal length eyepiece).
