4.5. Star Identification Function

The 8407 hand controller has a star identification function. After Polar Alignment and Set Time & Site, slew the telescope to a bright star manually or using the GOTO function. Press ? (Help) button to identify the star that the telescope is pointing to, as well as nearby bright stars if there are any.

4.6. Turning Off the Mount

When you have finished your observation, just simply turn the mount power off and disassemble the mount and tripod.

If the mount is set up on a pier or inside an observatory, it is recommended that you return the mount to Zero Position or park the telescope. This will ensure that there is no need for you to perform the initial setup again when you power on the mount subsequently with the mount not moved from the parked position.

4.7. Putting the Mount Back into the Carrying Case

Make sure that the Gear Switches are fully engaged before removing the mount from the tripod. Lay the mount into the carrying case. Turn the R.A. Gear Switch clockwise all the way in to disengage the

gear system for transportation.
