THE ADVANCED POLARIS EQUATORIAL MOUNT IS IDEAL FOR BEGINNERS, BUT ALSO FOR EXPERIENCED OBSERVERS WHO WISH TO USE A LIGHTWEIGHT TRAVEL MOUNT.
THE ADVANCED POLARIS HAS NOT ONLY A VERY ELEGANT DESIGN, IT IS ALSO CAPABLE OF DELIVERING GREAT PERFORMANCE AS ILLUSTRATION AT RIGHT SHOWS. THE FINE ADJUSTMENT OF THE AXES IS CARRIED OUT BY A 58.4MM DIAMETER ALUMINUM ALLOY GEAR WITH 144 TEETH AND 9MM DIAMETER BRASS WORM SHAFTS, EACH OF WHICH IS SUPPORTED BY TWO BALL BEARINGS: HERE IS A FINE MECHANICS OF THE HIGHEST QUALITY.
THE SPECIAL FEATURE OF THE ADVANCED POLARIS IS THE ADJUSTABLE FRICTION: WITHOUT FIRST RELEASING THE CLAMPS, YOU CAN MOVE THE TELESCOPE IN THE DIRECTION YOU NEED TO POINT. THE EXACT CENTERING IN THE EYEPIECE IS USED BY THE KNOBS. THE SLIPPER CLUTCH WORKS EVEN IF YOUR ADVANCED POLARIS HAS (AP-SM) MOTORS. THIS ALLOWS YOU TO NAVIGATE THROUGH THE SKY QUICKLY AND INTUITIVELY.
TO POINT THE MOUNT NORTH, YOU CAN USE A POLAR FINDERCASE OR THE COMPASS ON YOUR VIXEN POLARIE CAMERA MOUNT. THE ADVANCED POLARIS HAS CONNECTION OPTIONS FOR BOTH THINGS. USING THE COMPASS HAS THE ADVANTAGE OF NOT HAVING TO BEND UNDER THE MOUNT AND OF BEING ABLE TO ALIGN YOURSELF WITHOUT LOOKING AT THE POLAR STAR. THE POLAR VIEWER AND COMPASS ARE FOUND UNDER "RECOMMENDED ACCESSORIES". IN GENERAL: THANKS TO THE WIDE RANGE OF ACCESSORIES, THE SET CAN BE EXPANDED ACCORDING TO YOUR NEEDS.
THE STARBOOK ONE IS A VERSATILE AND EASY-TO-USE CONTROLLER DESIGNED TO ALLOW THE MOVEMENT OF THE RA AND DEC AXES AT DIFFERENT SPEEDS. TRACKING OPTIONS INCLUDE THE IMPORTANT SIDERALS TRACKING AND SPEEDS FOR TIME-LAPSE PHOTOGRAPHY, LUNAR AND SOLAR OBSERVING. IN ADDITION, THE CONTROL OFFERS MANY USEFUL FUNCTIONS, SUCH AS BACKLASH COMPENSATION, AUTOGUIDE PORT, PEC AND AN INTEGRATED RED LED LIGHT.
THE STARBOOK ONE CONTROL IS DESIGNED FOR, AMONG OTHERS, VIXEN'S ADVANCED POLARIS AND SX2 MOUNTS AND IS AN INTEGRAL PART OF THE ADVANCED POLARIS' RA MOTOR MODULE. PLEASE NOTE: IF YOU WISH TO POWER THE ADVANCED POLARIS MOUNT IN DECLINATION, YOU WILL ALSO REQUIRE THE DECLINATION MOTOR MODULE. THE SX2 ASSEMBLY, HOWEVER, HAS ALREADY ALL THE ENGINES INSTALLED.
THE MOTORIZATION OF THE RIGHT ASCENSION AXIS IS SUFFICIENT FOR MOUNT TRACKING DURING VISUAL OBSERVATIONS OR PHOTOGRAPHY AS IT COMPENSATES FOR THE CELESTIAL SPHERE MOVEMENT.
