Keep pressing the ENTER key until "Country/State" appears
on the display. (Ignore the prompts requesting "Date" and
"Time" for now – these functions will be explained later).
When “Country/States” displays, press either one of the
SCROLL KEYS to cycle through the choices on the list. When
your state or country appears on the list, press ENTER.
“Cities” displays. Using the SCROLL KEYS, cycle through the

when your model displays.
The display now displays "Setup: Align." See page 19 for more
information.
If Autostar does not requests the Country/State, City and
Telescope Model information, use the "Telescope Model"
and "Site" options in the Setup menu to change this
information. See pages 28, 29 and 31 for more information.
Sight along the side of the telescope’s main tube to locate an
object. If you wish to learn how to attach and align the
telescope’s viewfinder, see pages 13 to 14.
Use the telescope’s focus knob (L) to bring the object into
focus.

You can now use the ARROW KEYS to slew (move) the
telescope up, down, right or left. Practice using the ARROW

as the “slew” speed) press a NUMBER KEY from 1 through 9.
1 is the slowest speed and 9 is the fastest.
Make sure that the flip mirror control (K) is in the “Up” position,
as shown the diagram above.
