LED for solar rate will light up. We chose solar as the default because it is more difficult to read the LEDs in
sunlight.
VAR Rate Knob: When the VAR LED light is lit, you may turn this knob to vary the drive rate of the motors. This
is very useful for tracking planets and comets.
LED Knob: There is an LED output available on the 600HDA. The output is located on the declination axis
housing (marked RETICLE OUT). You may insert your illuminated LED reticle to this plug. Brightness is
controlled with the left hand knob on the controller labeled LED.
MOUNT MAINTENANCE AND ALIGNMENT:
Under normal operating conditions, no maintenance is required. Your 600HDA is a precision instrument with very
accurate worm and wheel adjustments. Please be careful if you place the mount on a flat surface, i.e. the ground
or trunk of your car. The gear alignment may be affected if the R.A. and Dec. motor/gear box assemblies sustain
undue lateral force. This is true of any fine instrument. We suggest that you transport and store the mount in a
case or in a well-padded box
NOTE:
drive until the power is drained.
POSSIBLE UPGRADES FOR YOUR 600HDA
Additional Mounting Plate Options: Please refer to our website to learn of additional mounting plate options. All
models of the 600E can use the same plates.
Encoders for Digital Setting Circles: The declination axis of the 600HDA must be modified in order to use the
encoders (part #ENC600). Please call Astro-Physics for information about # 6ENMOD modification.
ST-4 Modification: The 8010 controller can be modified to accept the ST-4 autoguider. If this modification has
already been made, you will see an on-off switch and male 15-pin D-sub connector on the lower side of the box.
Please call Astro-Physics if you need modification # ST4MOD.
If any problems occur, please don't hesitate to contact Astro-Physics for assistance.

If your battery runs low, the declination motors will stop first, though the R.A. will continue to
