5.3. Sync to Target

This operation will match the telescope's current coordinates to target’s ones. After slew to an object, move the cursor to “Sync to Target” and press ENTER. Follow the screen to do the sync. Using this function can improve the GOTO accuracy in nearby sky. Multiple syncs can be performed if needed.

“Sync to Target” will only work after “Select and slew” was performed. You may need using SPEED key to change the slewing speed to make the centering procedure easier. A default slew speed is 2X.
