The EQ6-R mount is equipped with an index on its R.A. worm thus the motor controller can
keep tracking the current position of the worm. After a proper PEC training routine, in which
the training data is stored in the motor controller permanently, a user can start the periodic
error correction (PEC) at any time to improve the tracking performance for short focal length
astrophotography. A training process is not required in the next observing session (assuming
that the polar alignment is always accurate), thus this is a Permanent Period Error Correction
(PPEC). A user can train the mount with manual guiding or auto-guiding. For detailed instruc-
tions, please refer to the relevant section in the SynScan hand controller instruction manual.
5.1 Permanent Periodic Error Correction
The EQ6-R mount is equipped with a SNAP port which can control the shutter releasing of a
camera. Working with the SynScan hand control’s “Camera Control” function, a user can take
batch exposures when doing astrophotography. Up to 8 groups of “Exposure-time & Frames”
combinations can be set on the SynScan hand controller. For detailed information, refer to the
SynScan hand control’s instruction manual.
