There are five parking positions. Two positions that park the scope horizontally ( Horizon Position ).
Two positions that park the scope vertically ( Zenith Position ).
“
Current Position
” will park the scope at its
current position. When the mount is turned on, it will use the last parking position setting as the default
setting.
5.4.7. Set Tracking Rate
You can set up the mount tracking rate
by selecting “
Set Tracking Rate
”. Then the user can select
“
Automatic Rate
” to let the mount choose a proper Solar/Luna/Sidereal tracking rate based on the GOTO
target.
The “
User defined speed
” can be adjusted from 0.9900X to 1.0100X of sidereal.
5.4.8. Meridian Treatment
This function tells the mount what to do when it tracks past the meridian. You can tell the mount if it
needs a meridian flip and when to do it.

“
Set Position Limit
” will tell the mount when to stop tracking or to do a meridian flip. The limit
can be set at from 0° to 15° (60 minutes) past meridian.

“
Set Behavior
” will determine if the mount will stop tracking or perform a meridian flip at the set
position limit.
5.4.9. Set Altitude Limit
This function allows the mount to keep tracking an object even if it is below the horizon but can still
be seen, for example from an elevated observation site, such as a hill. The range can be set from -89° to
+89°. The default limit is 00°.
Be careful when setting this limit. It may cause mount GOTO problems.
5.4.10. Wi-Fi Option
This function will display WI-FI module functions. It is useful when connect the mount via wireless
connection.
Click on Wireless Status: displays will show:

SSID: HBX8409_XXXXXX

IP: 010.010.100.254

Port: 08899

MAC: XX-XX-XX-XX-XX-XX
Click on Restart will restart the Wi-Fi adapter and Restore to Factory to restore the factory settings.
5.4.11. Set RA Guiding (EC mount Only)
You can turn off R.A. guiding by selecting
“
Filter R.A. Guiding
” to allow the high precision encoder
to correct the tracking error, or turn the R.A. guiding on by selecting
“
Allow RA Guiding
” to allow the mount
to receive guiding corrections from the autoguiding software.
5.4.12. Language
Select one of supported menu languages. Currently it has English and Chinese.
5.4.13. Enable CW Up Position
This setting will allow the CW moving to an up position. The upward angle limit is same as the
meridian flipping setting, or 20 degree at maximum. When this set is enabled, the mount will GOTO past the
