The NexStar Evolution includes a computerized hand control
to operate the telescope directly without the use of the WiFi
connection to Celestron SkyPortal . The hand control can be
plugged into any of the 4 AUX ports on the mount .

1 . Liquid Crystal Display (LC D) Window: Has a four-line,
18 character display screen that has red backlighting for
comfortable viewing of telescope information and scrolling
text .
2 . Align: Instructs the hand control to begin the process of
aligning your telescope .
3 . Direction Keys: Allows complete control of the mount in
any direction . Use the direction keys to center objects in
the eyepiece or manually slew telescope .
4 . Catalog Keys: The mount has a key on the hand control
to allow direct access to each of the main catalogs in its
40,000+ object database . Your mount contains the follow-
ing catalogs in its database:
• Solar System – All 7 planets in our Solar System plus the
Moon, Sun and Pluto .
• Stars – Custom lists of all the brightest stars, double stars,
variable stars and asterisms .
• Deep Sky – Custom lists of all the best galaxies, nebulae
and clusters as well as the complete Messier
and select NGC objects .
5 . Identify: Searches the databases and displays the name
and offset distances to the nearest matching objects .
6 . Menu: Displays the many setup and utilities functions,
such as tracking rate and user defined objects and many
others .
7 . Option (Celestron Logo): Can be used in combination
with other keys to access more advanced features and
functions .
8 . Enter: Pressing ENTER allows you to select any of
the functions, accept entered parameters and slew the
telescope to displayed objects .
9 . Back: Pressing BACK will take you out of the current
menu and display the previous level of the menu path .
Press BACK repeatedly to get back to a main menu or
use to erase data entered by mistake .
10 . Sky Tour: Activates the tour mode, which seeks out all
the best objects in the sky and automatically slews the
telescope to those objects .
11 . Scroll Keys: Scrolls up and down within any of the
menu lists . A double arrow symbol on the right side of
the LCD indicates that the scroll keys can be used to
view additional information .
12 . Motor Speed: Slews the telescope faster or slower
when the direction buttons are pressed .
13 . Object Info: Displays coordinates and useful informa-
tion about objects selected from the database .
14 . RS-232 Jack: Allows you to connect your telescope to
a computer, for use with software programs for point-and
click slewing capability and updating firmware via PC .
Alignment Procedures
For the telescope to accurately point to objects in the sky, it
must first be aligned with known positions (stars) . With this
information, the telescope can create a model of the sky,
which it uses to locate any object with known coordinates .
There are many ways to align your telescope with the sky
depending on what information the user is able to provide:
• SkyAlign works by aligning on any three bright stars or
planets in the sky .
• One Star Align uses the entered time/location information
and allows the user to select one alignment star . Provides a
fast alignment, at the expense of less pointing accuracy .
• Two Star Align uses the entered time/location information
and allows the user to select which two alignment stars the
telescope will automatically slew to .
• Auto Two Star Align will display a list of visible daytime
objects (planets and the Moon) available to align the tele-
scope .
• Solar System Align will display a list of visible daytime
objects (planets and the Moon) available to align the tele-
scope .
• Quick-Align will ask you to input all the same information
as you would for the Two Star Align procedure . However,
instead of slewing to the alignment stars for centering and
alignment, the telescope bypasses this step and simply
models the sky based on the information given .
• Last Alignment restores your last saved star alignment
and switch position . Last Alignment also serves as a good
safeguard in case the telescope loses power .
• EQ North / EQ South Alignment is used when polar
aligned on an optional equatorial wedge . Similar to the
altazimuth alignments described earlier, the EQ alignments
gives you the choice of performing an AutoAlign, Two-Star
alignment, One-Star alignment or Solar System alignment .
Overview of Two Popular
Alignment Methods
Aligning with SkyAlign
1 . Flip the NexStar Evolution's power switch on . The hand
control will display "Verifying Packages..." After a few sec-
onds, it will display "Evolution . " Press ENTER to choose
SkyAlign or use the UP/DOWN scroll keys (10) to select
a different method of alignment .
2 . Press ENTER . You will be prompted to enter the local time
in 24-hour format . Ex . 21:00 for 9PM .
3 . Select Daylight Savings or Standard Time, toggle the 6 &
9 (up and down scrolling keys) to change .
4 . Select time zone, then enter the date .
5 . Press ENTER to begin SkyAlign . Use the arrow buttons
on the hand control to slew (move) the telescope towards
any bright celestial object in the sky . Center the object in
the crosshairs of the finderscope and press ENTER .
6 . If the finderscope has been properly aligned with the
telescope tube, the alignment star should now be visible
inside the field of view of the eyepiece . Center the star in
