Spread the tripod legs apart to stand the tripod upright and attach the accessory tray.
Adjust the height of the tripod as needed. Place the mount atop the tripod head and secure it in 
place with a clamping screw.

focuser. Remove the dust cap from the front of the telescope.
Assemble the finderscope: slide the base of your finderscope into a dovetail mount on the 
telescope tube and lock it in place with a thumbscrew.
Connect the hand controller by plugging it into the corresponding port at the lower part of the 
mount.
Put eight AA batteries into the battery box, matching the polarity indicated. Plug the battery box 
into the appropriate port at the lower part of the mount. 

Assembling the telescope 

CAUTION!

When not connected to a power source, only altitude coordinates may be adjusted. Do not 
attempt to adjust azimuth coordinates, or the telescope warranty will be null and void. 
Any adjustments to azimuth coordinates should only be performed with a hand controller, 
or the navigation mechanism may be broken. 

Power requirements 

To use a SkyMatic telescope, it has to be connected to a 1A, 11V–15V DC power source. Make sure 
the power cable is properly plugged into the 12V DC jack on the mount. 

SynScan™ AZ hand controller 

The hand controller cable has an 8-pin RJ-45 connector on one end and a 6-pin RJ-12 on the 
other. Plug the RJ-45 connector into the hand controller and the other end into the mount. There 
are three ports at the base of SynScan™ AZ. The middle one is used to connect your telescope to 
a computer or any other device with an RS-232 connector. The 12V DC jack on the hand 
controller allows you to browse the database or update the software without having to connect 
the device to a telescope.

SynScan™ AZ gives you direct control over the telescope navigation and access to an expansive 
database of celestial objects. The hand controller has a 16-character backlit display with a 
scrolling function.

The keypad may be divided into four groups.
