Helpful Hint: You can align your telescope during the day by aligning to any visible celestial object. Tap the Settings icon,
then tap Telescope Setup and Control, and select "Align Using Manual Align. " Now position the telescope to an object visible
during the day – such as the Sun (only with a proper full aperture solar filter!), the Moon, or Venus. After one object is aligned,
tap "Done" to complete the alignment. Your telescope's pointing accuracy will not be as precise as with a typical three point
alignment. However, this alignment is suitable for daytime observing and tracking objects.
