Key features Coronado
- 9-Speed Dual-Axis Operation: Use the Autostar pushbuttons to move the telescope on either or both axes, simultaneously, at any of nine drive speeds, from 2x sidereal to 5°/second. Guided Tours: Allows Autostar to choose the best objects for observing on any given night.
- 200 User-Defined Objects: The observer can add the locations of up to 200 objects of his/her choosing, store these objects in Autostar's memory, and call them up at any time.
- Precise sidereal-rate tracking: in either altazimuth or equatorial modes. Once an object is located by Autostar, the telescope automatically tracks it and keeps it centered in the telescope's field of view, fully compensating for the Earth's rotation.
- Additional Capabilities: In addition to database object selection and observation, Autostar permits a wide array of fascinating and educational capabilities.
- Automatic GO TO capability to any astronomical object: of known Right Ascension and Declination, plus digital readouts of telescope position, continuously in RA and Dec.
- Model: Coronado 497 Autostar Controller with 30,000 Object Database Including "Sun as an Object".
Review Coronado 497 Autostar Controller with 30,000 Object Database Including "Sun as an Object". / Coronado:One of the most important advances in telescope control by Meade in the past 25 years, the Coronado #497 Autostar Computer Controller turns the LXD75 into an automatic celestial object locating system, including the Sun as an object. Just plug the Autostar into the telescope's HBX port, do a quick, less than one minute, telescope alignment, and you're ready to observe any object in the Autostar's 30,000-object database. Best of all, the Coronado Autostar is easy to use. Even the most novice observer will find himself or herself locating dozens of fascinating celestial objects the very first night out - from commonly-observed objects such as the rings of Saturn, the satellites of Jupiter, and the Orion Nebula (M42); to more difficult objects such as the Ring Nebula (M57) in Lyra, the Spiral Galaxy (M33) in Triangulum, and the Sombrero Galaxy (M104) in Virgo; to very obscure objects near the telescope's threshold of visibility such as the diffuse nebula NGC 6559 in Sagittarius, the galactic star cluster NGC 1778 in Auriga, and the spiral galaxy NGC 3310 in Ursa Major. Any of Autostar's database objects can be called up and entered on the hand controller display in seconds. The observer then simply presses the GO TO pushbutton and watches as the telescope automatically slews (moves) to the object and places it in the field of view. The effect of Autostar is to bring objects easily within reach which were previously unreachable for all but the most dedicated of. |
