Pro Go-To Sky-Watcher Kit for EQ3-2

To motorize and add GoTo

• Only for Sky-Watcher EQ3-2 mount
• SynScan handheld controller included
• Control panel (autoguidance port included)

This easy-to-install GoTo kit transforms a non-motorized EQ3-2 equatorial mount into a GoTo equatorial mount , that is, it follows the stars and automatically points at celestial objects. Piloting is carried out by manual control that includes more than 49,000 stars: a catalog of classical stars, catalogs of double and variable stars, the catalogs of Messier, NGC and IC objects, as well as the planets and the Moon.

The kit also includes an autoguiding interface, almost essential for photography. The power supply is 12V 3A, using a cable with a male cigarette lighter plug. It is possible to power the kit with other optional solutions (220V/12V transformer, battery pack, etc.). This model is designed to be mounted exclusively on EQ3-2 type mounts .

Automated Go-To clocking system

After calibration (setup) with the polar telescope on the North Star, select the mount alignment on one, two or three stars. More than 49,200 objects including the main catalogs are registered in the database (Messier, NGC, IC as well as planets, Moon and Sun). For maximum comfort, the mount moves quickly, up to 3.4°/s via manual control. Easy to use, it helps quickly direct the instrument to any galaxy, nebula, cluster or object in the solar system. Discover in detail the famous Andromeda galaxy, the fabulous curtains that surround the heart of Orion, the Hercules cluster M13 and its heart rich in thousands of stars. Saturn, Jupiter and the Moon are also wonders to scrutinize without moderation.

The indication on the hand controller of the date, time and place of observation combined with The "Tour" function allows you to point your SynScan GoTo mount at the most interesting objects throughout the night . Enjoy a guided sky tour of your viewing location by clicking the "Enter" button based on the object presented in a drop-down list. After selection, the object you want to photograph or observe is close to the center of the field... a real treat!
