The CGE has a hand controller designed to give you instant access to all the functions the CGE has to offer.
With automatic slewing to over 40,000 objects, and common sense menu descriptions, even a beginner can
master its variety of features in just a few observing sessions. Below is a brief description of the individual
components of the computerized hand controller:
1. Liquid Crystal Display (LCD) Window: Has a dual-line, 16 character display screen that is backlit
for comfortable viewing of telescope information and scrolling text.
2. Align: Instructs the CGE to use a selected star or object as an alignment position.
3. Direction Keys: Allows complete control of the CGE in any direction. Use the direction keys to move
the telescope to the initial alignment stars or for centering objects in the eyepiece.
