Step 11. Select and Slew to an object
The mount is now ready to GOTO and track objects.

Go to: Menu>Select and Slew
Press ENTER.

Step 12.
Select a category (ex. “planets, sun, moon”). Then
select an object (ex. “moon”). Then press ENTER.

The telescope will automatically slew to the object and
lock on. It will automatically begin to track once it locks
on to the object.

Step 13. Sync to Target

(Use this to center and

synchronize the object from Step 12 into the memory).

Go to: MENU>Sync. To Target. Press ENTER. Next
use the arrow keys to slew to the object until it is
centered in your eyepiece. Then press ENTER again
on the hand controller.
To slew to other objects repeat steps 11 and 12. You
do not need to repeat step 13 except for adjustments.

(Refer to the online manual for 1-star and 2-star alignments. Sync to
Target is the same as 1-star Alignment except that you choose the
object to align to.)
