Primary Corrector ASA400
* The Primary Corrector (diagram by P Keller). For fast speed and huge fields. The prime focus is permanently installed in front of the secondary mirror and by removing the secondary in its holder you allow the light path to reach the prime focus.
Switching between the 2 focal configurations takes only 1 minute. The spot diagram shows a field diameter of 64mm, so you are ready even for very large CCD's with this telescope. The backfocus is 79.31 mm measured from the front of the lensring.
Secondary Corrector ASA400
Autoguiding DeepSky ASA400
* 0.25x guiding correction speed in RA
* The RA and DEC corrections are not linked!!! The LX200 protocoll was not capable to trigger both in parallel... now it works with an average of a minimum of 1 pixel on the 80kg equipment frontsite...
* 2x2 Binning on guiding chip (with one autodark) at 4 sec exposures and 0.5 sec delay in between
* The Hinode Solar Guider is a fully selfcontained unit designed to track the sun and control a motorized astronomical telescope mount.
Lunatico Pocket CW2 -mobile weather alert-
* Configurable alarms for any of the readings, safe, unsafe, battery level and data age (“watchdog” function), however you want to set them—with snooze, ignore period. PC compatible and smartphone app)
* Cloud detection
* Relative humidity measurements.
* Ambient temperature readings.
* Brightness readings (Sky brightness measurements in mpsas (magnitudes per square arc second)).
* Ability to measure sky quality
