Figure 13. (a) The altitude encoder disk is attached to the telescope mounting bracket with three 5mm machine screws. The disk fits just inside the Ebony Star bearing ring. (b) The aluminum spacer ring should be installed on the telescope mounting bracket’s shaft (altitude axis bolt) such that the flat side of the ring faces outward.

16. Attach the altitude encoder disk to the telescope

mounting bracket with the three 5mm (~1/4") machine

screws (Figure 13a). Place the aluminum spacer ring

on the telescope mounting bracket shaft with the flat

Altitude encoder

side of the ring facing outward (the opposite side has

an indentation around the hole). See Figure 13b. Then

carefully insert the shaft through the hole in the altitude

encoder board and then the hole in the side panel. You

may have to carefully rotate the shaft back and forth a

little to get it through the hole, as it is a tight fit. Slide the

inside washer and ball bearing ring (which you removed

in step 13) onto the shaft, then “thread on” the outer

washer followed by the altitude tensioning knob.

17. Lastly, connect the encoder cables and install the cable

retaining clips. Refer to Figure 14 for proper placement.

Connect one end of the azimuth encoder cable (the

longer of the two cables) to the encoder jack in the

top baseplate. Connect the other end to the encoder

connector board on the side panel. The cable should plug

into the jack on the right side of the encoder connector

board.

Plug one end of the altitude encoder cable into the

modular jack on the altitude encoder board. Connect the

other end of the cable to the jack on the left side of the

encoder connector board.

Use the provided cable retaining clips to secure the

altitude and azimuth cables neatly to the base. We

recommend using one clip for the (shorter) altitude cable,

and two clips for the (longer) azimuth cable (Figure 14).

The clips have adhesive backing; simply peel the paper

off the back of the clip and press the adhesive back to

the base where you want the clip to be located.
