Atmospheric Refraction
The celestial light coming from outside of the earth refracts at the atmosphere and causes displacement of celestial objects. It is called
atmospheric refraction. The atmospheric refraction increases near the horizon, decreases as the altitude of celestial objects rise, and
diminishes at the zenith. The "Atmospheric Refraction" setting allows you to compensate or diminish the affect of the atmospheric refraction
to the celestial objects near the horizon.
It is recommended to choose OFF in the "Atmospheric Refraction" dialog box if you use an autoguider.
In the “Initial Configuration” menu, choose “Volume” with the or direction key and press
the key (or the key) to call up the dialog box.
In the “Volume” dialog box, enter your desired value between 0 and 20 with the or direction
key. Pressing the key will shift the cursor to OK. Then, press the key again to save and
leave the dialog box.
Pressing the key will allow you to listen to the chimes to confirm the loudness.
The setting is defaulted to “OFF”.
