Setting Local Time
Enter the date and local time of your observing site by using the upper five buttons on the STAR BOOK-S.
This task is required only once the first time you use the STAR BOOK-S. However, you will need to reset
the date and time if you travel from your regular observing site to a different time zone, or if you reset your
clocks for Daylight Saving time. The STAR BOOK-S keeps the stored memory while you replace the
batteries. It is not necessary to enter the date and time again if you put in new batteries within an hour.
A deviation may arise between the internal clock of the STAR BOOK-S and your time, but a few minutes’
difference does not affect the slewing performance of the unit.

key to enter.
