The current for the two stepper motors is sine wave shaped. This means that the motors run very silent, with no vibrations and with a very steady torque. This is called microstep mode.
5 programmable slewing speeds up to 3200x, for example 1/4x, 1x, 5x, 20x, 60x or: 0.3x, 1x, 3x, 10x, 500x. The maximum available speed depends on your motors and gears.
The tracking speed can be selected for:
- Stars, Moon, Sun
- Comets (both axes are programmable, King Rate is possible too)
- Earth (no tracking at all, e.g. for adjusting the optics)
Automatic Slewing to Objects (GoTo)
- All 109 Messier objects
- A practical selection (>3500) NGC and IC objects
- 168 bright stars (all stars brighter than 3rd mag)
- Sun and planets
- RA and DE
- If you didn´t find yout object right away: Automatic searching on a spiral-shaped track around the center of the field.
The third version has a built-in voltage converter. It accepts a supply voltage between 10 and 15 Volts, and the voltage converter produces 40 Volts for the stepper motors.
This means that the maximum slewing speed is more than twice compared with 12 Volts.
We recommend this version if you need high slewing speed and if you only have a 12 Volts (car battery) supply.
