♦ Compatible with Celestron Schmidt-Cassegrain SC, EHD and RASA telescopes from 6" to 14" and with the 7" Mak
♦ Can be operated via a computer - ideal for remote opertion.
♦ Stand-alone system if combined with a GoTo mount from Celestron. The motor focuser can be operated via the hand controller. The mount provides electrical power.
♦ Several speeds possible, from slow (astrophotography) to fast (observation). A manual adjustment is therefore no longer necessary and also not intended.
♦ Backlash compensation of the focuser gear box, thus comfortable focusing becomes possible.
♦ Easy-to-use surface (Focuser Utility Software) - even autofocus becommes possible
♦ The motor can automatically return to a previouisly stored position.
♦ Complete scope of delivery with mounting kit for the telescope
♦ If you use a computer-controlled mount from Celestron, you can operate the focusing motor via the mount with the supplied AUX cable. This allows the operation via the hand controller of the mount (NexStar+ or StarSense) or a computer.
♦ If you don´t use a Celestron mount, you can power and also control the focusing motor viaa the USB port of a computer. In addition, you will need a cable with USB-B plug.
♦ You can also use an external 12 V DC power supply which is connected to the 12 V input of the motor.
