5.9. Park Scope
5.9.1. Park Scope
Park the mount to a preset parking position.
5.9.2. Set Park Position
There are 6 park positions to be chosen from, namely “Up north,” “Left zenith,” “Left horizontal,”
“Right zenith,” “Right horizontal,” and “Position now.” Different OTA may have different requirement for
parking. When the mount is powered off, the park position will be remembered. If you selected the park
position other than “Up north,” make sure you do a “One Star Align” before using GOTO for any object.
This procedure only needs to be done if you do not move your telescope mount after you power off
the mount. R.A. axis pointing error will be stored in flash memory and recalled when you power on again. If
the power is turned off before performing “Park Scope” operation, all the reference information will be lost.
5.10. To Zero Position
This moves your telescope to its Zero Position. When the power is turned on, the mount assumes
the Zero Position. This is its reference point for all other objects being tracked.
