2. Attach the AZ Theodolite Mount:

   Mount the AZ theodolite bracket onto the top of the tripod. Ensure it is securely fastened. This mount allows for easy horizontal and vertical movement of the telescope.
3. Install the Optical Tube Assembly (OTA):

   Carefully attach the telescope's optical tube to the AZ mount. Use the provided screws or clamps to secure it firmly. Ensure the objective lens (larger end) is facing forward.

4. Kiinnitä Finder-tähtäin:

   Locate the 6x24 optical finder scope and attach it to its designated bracket on the main telescope tube. The finder scope helps in locating objects before viewkatselemalla niitä pääokulaarin läpi.
5. Insert the Zenith Mirror and Eyepiece:

   Insert the 90-degree zenith mirror into the focuser of the telescope. Then, insert your chosen eyepiece (e.g., 20mm MA eyepiece for lower magnification) into the zenith mirror. Secure with the thumbscrew.

Käyttöohjeet

1. Finderin laajuuden kohdistaminen:

   Before observing, align the finder scope with the main telescope. Point the main telescope at a distant, easily identifiable object (e.g., a tree top or a street light during the day). Look through the finder scope and adjust its alignment screws until the object is centered in its crosshairs. Then, check through the main eyepiece to ensure the object is also centered there.

2. Observing an Object:

   Once the finder scope is aligned, use it to locate your desired celestial object. Center the object in the finder scope's crosshairs. Then, look through the main telescope's eyepiece. You may need to make minor adjustments to the telescope's position using the AZ mount's handles.

3. Tarkennus:

   Turn the focuser knob (located near the eyepiece) slowly until the image appears sharp and clear. The focuser has a scale for precise adjustment.

   

   Figure 7: Detail of the focuser with its adjustment scale.
4. Suurennussuhteen muuttaminen:

   To change magnification, swap eyepieces. The 20mm MA eyepiece provides 25X magnification (500mm focal length / 20mm eyepiece focal length). The 4mm aspheric eyepiece provides 125X magnification (500mm / 4mm). For even higher magnification, insert the 2X Barlow lens into the focuser first, then insert an eyepiece into the Barlow lens. This doubles the magnification of any eyepiece used with it.

5. Älypuhelinsovittimen käyttäminen:

   If included, attach the smartphone adapter to an eyepiece. Secure your smartphone to the adapter and align its camera with the eyepiece to capture images or videos through the telescope.

Huolto

• Linssien puhdistus: Käytä pehmeää, nukkaamatonta liinaa, joka on erityisesti suunniteltu optisille linsseille. Pinttyneisiin tahroihin käytä pientä määrää optiikan puhdistusnestettä. Vältä linssien pintojen koskettamista sormillasi.
• Varastointi: When not in use, store the telescope in its carrying bag in a dry, dust-free environment. Keep dust caps on the objective lens and eyepieces.
• Yleishoito: Avoid exposing the telescope to extreme temperatures or humidity. Do not disassemble the optical components unless instructed by a qualified technician.

Vianetsintä

• Kuva on epäselvä: Adjust the focuser knob slowly until the image is sharp. Ensure the eyepiece is fully inserted and secured.
• Ei löydy kohteita: Ensure the finder scope is properly aligned with the main telescope. Start with the lowest magnification eyepiece (20mm MA) to get a wider field of view.
• Kuva on himmeä: This is normal for very high magnifications or when observing faint objects. Ensure your objective lens is clean. Observe from a dark location away from light pollution.
• Telescope is unstable: Ensure the tripod legs are fully extended and locked, and the accessory tray is attached for added stability. Place the tripod on a flat, firm surface.

Tekniset tiedot

Käyttäjän vinkit

• Aloita pienellä suurennuksella: Always begin observing with the lowest magnification eyepiece (20mm MA) to easily locate and center objects. Once centered, you can switch to higher magnification eyepieces.
• Observe from Dark Locations: For the best astronomical views, find a location away from city lights and light pollution.
• Varaa aikaa lämpötilan sopeutumiseen: If moving your telescope from a warm indoor environment to a cold outdoor one, allow it some time (15-30 minutes) to accustom to the ambient temperature. This helps prevent image distortion due to temperature differences.
• Practice Terrestrial Viewing: Before attempting complex astronomical observations, practice using your telescope for terrestrial viewing during the day. This helps you get familiar with focusing and tracking.
