Connection to telescopes with PLUS support rings (spaced more than 12cm)
If you want to use EAGLE CORE with telescopes with PLUS rings spaced more than
12 cm, you can place EAGLE CORE above the support rings to support a compact
telescope in parallel. In order to do this, however, you must first add a Vixen or
Losmandy PLUS plate on top of the support rings and then install EAGLE CORE.
In order to use EAGLE CORE in this configuration, place a Vixen or Losmandy PLUS
plate (same length as the one placed under the support rings) and secure it with 2
M6x12 screws for each ring. The plate above the telescope must be inverted to the
position beneath the optical tube. Then use 4 M6x12 screws to secure EAGLE CORE
to the plate. Finally, if you want to use a parallel telescope, you can connect the
PLUS guide rings. In order to do this, screw 2 M5x12 screws for each guide ring at
the top of EAGLE CORE.
