The latter are cycled and fairly intuitive. Initially the telescope tube is inverted downwards to a stop and aligned to two markers on the base. From the menu a bright star is selected. The telescope is manually aimed at the star which is centred in the eyepiece. This is repeated for a second star.
Alignment is then complete.
The handset warns if the second star falls outside its error box or if the telescope was aimed at the wrong star. Accompanying the telescope is a set of simple monthly star charts which give adequate guidance on star selection. Some 10,000 deep sky objects plus all the planets from the Sun outwards are included in the computer memory. The handset warns when the Sun is selected or when any object is too close to the Sun to be either seen or safely observed. The options available through the handset are very comprehensive.
