Additional Information

Knowledge Base

  1. Why do I need to guide my telescope for photography? Don't accurate alignment and firmware functions like periodic error correction (PEC) take care of it all?
  2. What is field rotation? How does it affect my scope's viewing and imaging?
  3. What is a radial guider? How does it help with astrophotography?
  4. My autoguider port seems to have a problem. How do I check it?
  5. What are the differences between training the PECTool visually with a crosshair eyepiece and training it with a CCD camera?
  6. I'm using my mount with an autoguider and getting mixed results. What are the best settings to use with Celestron mounts?
  7. My autoguided exposures show trailing. What could cause this?
  8. I'm using the NexGuide autoguider and the star appears bloated as I go from locking on the star to perform auto calibration. What's wrong?
  9. How far should the NexGuide's exposure value be decreased? What if the star disappears from the LCD screen?
  10. Does the NexGuide autoguider use a subpixel guiding algorithm?
  11. Can I use the NexGuide with a mount that only tracks in RA?
  12. Can the NexGuide autoguider be used as an image source for computer-based autoguiding-PEC software like PHD or MetaGuide?
  13. The autoguiding port diagram in my manual is different than the diagram for the NexGuide connection. Are these differences important?
