SOLAR WARNING
• Never look directly at the Sun with the naked eye or with a telescope (unless you have the proper solar filter)
Permanent and irreversible eye damage may result
• Never use your telescope to project an image of the Sun onto any surface Internal heat build-up can damage the
telescope and any accessories attached to it
• Never use an eyepiece solar filter or a Herschel wedge Internal heat build-up inside the telescope can cause these devices
to crack or break, allowing unfiltered sunlight to pass through to the eye
• Never leave the telescope unsupervised Make sure an adult who is familiar with the correct operating procedures is with your
telescope at all times, especially when children are present
SYNC
The Sync feature can improve your telescope's pointing accuracy in a specific region of the sky Sync is a very useful feature
when used in conjunction with the Constellation Tour and Identify features, in which you will be exploring smaller areas of
the sky To Sync on an object:
1 Select a desired star (or object) from the STARS or DEEP SKY database and slew to it
2 Once the object is centered in the eyepiece, press the BACK button until you arrive at the main menu
3 When the display reads "NexStar SE, " press the ALIGN button on the hand control
4 Use the SCROLL UP and SCROLL DOWN buttons and select the Sync option Press ENTER
5 Align the Sync object in the center of the finderscope Press ENTER
6 Carefully center the object in the eyepiece Press ALIGN
Your telescope's pointing accuracy will now be improved in that area of the sky
UNDO SYNC
A Sync can negatively affect your pointing accuracy in other parts of the sky, so it may be necessary to 'Un-Sync" your telescope
when you would like to exploring areas of the sky beyond the initial Sync area An Undo Sync will restore the pointing of your
telescope to its original alignment Additionally, if you wish to add calibration stars or re-alignment stars, you will be asked to
Undo Sync before you proceed
