EQ-320 Tracking Motor Kit

The EQ-320 Telescope Tracking Motor Kit

You have just located an object in your field of vision... and it is already missing again. That's why you should get a motorized system for your telescope: this saves you having to adjust the tracking by hand over and over again. This is a good accessory for beginners who want to orient themselves faster in the sky or enter the world of astronomical photography.

Compatible with:

• Advanced 150/750 EQ-320 Telescope
• Advanced 130/650 EQ-320 Telescope

A summary of its advantages:

• Automatic tracking motor in the right ascension axis that compensates for the Earth's rotational motion; so objects stay within your field of vision
• Control knob with four stellar speeds: 2x, 4x, 8x and 16x
• Ideal for visual observations and astronomical photography
• 12V DC motor, powered by batteries or an optional power supply.

Comfortable observation with automatic tracking

Once you have aligned your telescope with the first reference point, the target stars and planets will always be in view, exactly in the center of the field of view. By not having to keep an eye on manual tracking, you can focus all your attention on observing, take your time with every detail, and even show it off to your family and friends.

The motor moves the telescope at the appropriate stellar speed. You can choose between several speeds: 2x, 4x, 8x and 16x. This way you can then make all the fine corrections or necessary changes in your positioning with the control knob.

For any place on Earth
It doesn't matter where you are: you can observe with your telescope from wherever you want. It works even in the southern hemisphere of the Earth. Simply set your telescope's automatic rotation direction with the N/S switch.

Your first foray into the world of astronomical photography
This EQ-320 accessory makes your observing experience more comfortable, but automatic tracking is also essential for those new to astronomical photography: with it you will prevent your long exposure shots from being out of focus and you will be able to capture wonderful images of the planets, the Moon and individual craters on its surface.
