information given. This will allow you to roughly slew to the coordinates of bright objects like the moon and planets and
gives the telescope the information needed to track objects in any part of the sky (depending on accuracy of polar
a
lignment). Quick-Align is not meant to be used to accurately locate small or faint deep-sky objects or to track objects
accurately for photography.
To use Quick-Align, simply select Quick Align from the alignment options and press ENTER. The telescope will
automatically use the entered date/time parameters to align itself with the sky and display Alignment Successful.
N
OTE: Once a Quick-Align has been done, you can add alignment and/or calibration stars to improve your telescopes
pointing accuracy. See the Po

The Last Alignment method will automatically recall the

telescope accidentally lose power or be powered down.
NOTE: Just like with Quick-Align, you can use the Alignment Stars or Sync feature (see below) to improv
your telescopes pointing accuracy after using the Last Alignment method. If the mount has not moved since th
p
revious alignment then it is recommended to use Sync to improve the pointing accuracy of your mount.
However, if the mount has been moved then changing alignment stars is the best way to re-align your mount.
To
maintain a more accurate alignment over a series of observing sessions, use the Hibernate feature described

ter in this chapter.

The CG Series telescopes have several options that allow you to improve the pointing accuracy of your mount
E
in a variety of ways.
Alignment Stars:
Alignment stars allows you to replace any of the original alignment stars with a new star or celestial object.
This can be useful if you have aligned your telescope usin
st
ars to align the telescope on actual objects in the sky. Th
telescope without having to re-enter addition information.
To r
eplace an existing alignment star with a new alignment star:
1. Select the desired star (or object) from the database and slew to it.
2. Once centered, press the UNDO button until you are at the main menu.
3. With CGE Ready displayed, press the ALIGN key on the hand control.
4. Use the Up/Down buttons and select the Alignment Stars option and press ENTER.
5.
The display will then ask you which alignment star you want to replace. Use the UP and Down scroll
keys to select the alignment star to be replaced and press ENTER
closest to the new object. This will space out your alignment stars across th
