What is CHART MODE?
Unlike
SCOPE MODE
, the telescope is not linked to the screen in CHART MODE. Search for
objects in CHART MODE before starting automatic slewing. You may also use this mode when
you simply wish to refer to a star chart.

SCOPE MODE
appears on screen after
initialization when the power on the STAR
BOOK-S is turned on. Change it to CHART
MODE by pressing the Chart key. CHART
should now appear at the upper left of the
screen as shown below.
Center the celestial object that you wish to use
as a reference point on the screen with the
keys. Using the
Zoom+ or Zoom- keys to change the scale of the
star chart on the screen will help you to center
your reference object correctly. Refer to
Hint 10
,
Hint 11
. Reference objects may also be selected
from the Object Menu (see page 40).
The Zoom+ key enlarges the star chart on the
screen. In CHART MODE it allows you to scroll
the chart slowly in a small area enlarged so that
you can center a reference object on screen
more accurately. In
SCOPE MODE
it allows
you to point the telescope more precisely.
The Zoom- key reduces the star chart on the
screen. It allows you to scroll the screen
quickly over a large area. The motor speed/
zoom level indicator is visible at the lower left
on the screen.
When you center a reference object, which is
shown on the screen, in the field of view of
your eyepiece, try to center it as precisely
as possible. This will increase the accuracy
of the system.
