Press the Power button to turn the panel on. The cooling fans will run for a couple
seconds when power is first applied.
The default display on the LCD screen is for control of the main focuser motor. Turning
the Control dial will rack the focuser in or out. The screen displays both the requested
focus position and the current position. Turning the dial clockwise moves the focus
drawtube out, with the focuser position count increasing. Turning the dial counter-
clockwise decreases the position count and moves the focuser in. See the section below
on Setup for instructions on resetting the focuser position and reversing the direction of
travel.
Pressing the Mode button will scroll the menu on the LCD screen through the various
electronic features.
Guider
First is the Guider focuser, for an optional MicroTouch focuser on an optional piggyback
instrument.
Rotator
Next is the rotator control. The rotator can be indexed in any position—see the section
below on Setup. Turning the Control dial clockwise turns the rotator clockwise. Position
angle of the rotator increases clockwise.
