CAUTION
: To avoid danger of electric shock and malfunction, do not expose EAGLE to rain or moisture. The elec-
tronics are not waterproof so in adverse weather like rain or snow, the EAGLE is not to be used outdoors.
PLEASE NOTE
: EAGLE is designed to control telescopes and accessories for astronomy and is not a standard
computer. Please do not modify EAGLE system settings since this could stop some of the EAGLE features. Addi-
tionally, operating system updates are not required if your EAGLE does not connect to the internet.
FIRST CONNECTION
: For wireless connectivity, EAGLE creates a WiFi network at the same frequency as those of
usually modems / routers used to connect to the internet. So if you use EAGLE at home (for example the first time,
to install your software) you might notice a low signal or, in some cases, have connection problems. You can move
it to an area with fewer WiFi connections or connect it to a monitor (HDMI), keyboard (USB) and mouse (USB) to
install your software.
WINDOWS
: EAGLE includes a computer with Windows OS. For any reference on how to use Windows, please
refer to the operating system user manual.
QUALITY CONTROL:
After assembly in our laboratories, every EAGLE unit, is tested by PrimaLuceLab technical
experts to verify the correct operation of all components = the integrated computer, stability and speed of the wire-
less connection and the power bridge.

CAUTION:
in order to connect EAGLE to other mechanical PLUS elements please
avoid to use too long screws that may touch the internal electronics of the EAGLE.
THE
THREADED PART OF THE SCREW THAT EXIT FROM THE ELEMENT (ring, bar or
clamp) TO BE CONNECTED TO THE EAGLE HAS TO BE NO LONGER THAN 6mm
.
If any of the screws touches the internal elements of EAGLE, this could lead to breaka-
ge or malfunction.
CAUTION
: EAGLE must be powered with 12V regulated voltage. You can use a power supply with 12V output
voltage or a field battery. If you use a battery, this MUST be provided with a proper voltage stabilization. In case
of any malfunction, immediately unplug the power supply.
DO NOT CONNECT TO THE EAGLE A BATTERY
WITHOUT 12V VOLTAGE REGULATOR
since it may damage the other instruments powered by EAGLE (like the
cooled camera). Immediately disconnect power supplies or battery if there’s any malfunction of the unit.
CAUTION: Before installing your devices driver and your astronomy software in the Windows operating
system of the EAGLE, PLEASE CREATE A BACKUP COPY OF YOUR SSD DISK by following the instruc-
tions you find at paragraph “First use: backup your SSD drive before installing your software” of this
user manual.
