The NexStar i Series ushers in a whole new generation of intelligent telescope design. Simple and friendly to use, the "i" series is a fully portable system, and can be equipped with the CN-16 GPS Accessory for completely automated GoTo function.
These models include all of the same features as our most advanced GPS and CGE telescope models in an affordable and expandable system. A completely automated GoTo system software features include automatic star alignment capability and GoTo slewing to over 40,000 objects. Most important, these two NexStars will fully align themselves when used with the CN-16 GPS accessory. Put the power of our newest software features and expanded object database to work for you with Celestron’s most versatile telescopes.
Go-TO Features:
- 40,000+
object database– The expanded, programmable user database
includes the complete Messier, NGC, IC and Caldwell catalogs.
Customized lists of all the best galaxies, nebulae and other deep-sky
objects. Room for hundreds of user defined objects.
- Quick Align – An easy way to get the altazimuth mount
tracking without actually aligning on two stars.
- Hibernate – This power saving device allows you to power
down the telescope without losing your alignment. The optional
CN-16 GPS accessory must be connected. All you have to do is enter
the correct time. Hibernate allows you to look for planets in
the daytime after having used the telescope the night before or
to observe night after night without having to re-align.
- Database Filter Limits – User-defined so that only objects
visible above the horizon are displayed on the hand control.
- AutoAlign – Automatically aligns the telescope in altazimuth
mode using the optional CN-16 GPS Accessory.
- Wedge Align Algorithm – Automatically aligns the telescope
to the celestial pole. Essential when you are performing a polar
alignment on an equatorial wedge.
- Auto North and Level Compatible – Automatically finds
North and Level with more precision than can be done by hand,
getting you closer to your alignment stars.
- User-Defined Slew Limits – Prevents the telescope from
slewing beyond the user-defined horizon in altazimuth and equatorial
mode.
- Cord Wrap – Prevents the telescope from wrapping its cords
when attaching optional accessories.
- Dozens of Other Powerful Features
Use the Power and Accuracy of GPS Satellites to Align Your Telescope with the Optional CN-16 GPS Accessory (#93963). Plug this 16-channel GPS module into your telescope’s drive base port to link up and automatically download information from one of many global positioning satellites. Controlled with the NexStar computerized hand control, the CN-16 will greatly improve the accuracy of your star alignments by locating north and leveling the optical tube with more precision than can be done by hand.
