For example Spika, Regulus, Bellatrix, so I had to press the down button sometimes until a star familiar to me was selected. And at night the Alignment was perfect, the only issue I had was that this time the Autostar selected other less bright stars and some of them I didn't know exactly where they were. The next day during the sunlight I trained the Motors using the "Setup->Train Drive" option using a distant land object.

After enyoing the view with different eyepieces the clouds covered the sky. And this time it was automatically centered by Autostar.

I waited more than 5 minutes and the planet was still correctly centered. And thanks to the auto tracking feature I didn't need to care about keeping the planet centered. So I pressed Enter for two seconds and then corrected the alignement using the arrows keys and pressed Enter again. The planet was well centered but I couldn't see it in the eyepiece, I could see it in the viewfinder. I selected the "Guided Tour" -> "Tonight's Best" and then the telescope started moving to Saturn. After that the telescope was aligned in less than 5 minutes. Like Sirius I had to correct the positioning with a few movements. Then the autostar started moving to Canopus. So I had to set the telescope in "home" position, tube level at 0 degress and pointed north (I used a compass) and pushed "Enter".Īfter that the Autostar selected the brightest start, Sirius and moved automatically, it stopped moving and I had to correct the positioning using the key numbers to select the speed and the arrows to move the tube, after a few movements I centered Sirius and pressed "Enter". Then I selected the Easy Align procedure. The First Time I connected the Autostar I had to set it up : I connected the controller to my telescope a Meade DS-114mm (4.5" reflecting telescope) with dual motor control system.
