THE NEXSTAR+ HAND CONTROL
You have received a newly upgraded NexStar+ hand control with your telescope. The hand control now features a USB
connector used for linking to a PC with control software, and to perform firmware updates.
1. LIQUID CRYSTAL DISPLAY (LCD) WINDOW: Red backlighting for comfortable
nighttime viewing of telescope information and scrolling text. Remove
the clear protective tape from the screen before use.
2. ALIGN: Instructs the telescope to begin the default alignment
procedure. It is also used to select a star or object as an
alignment position.
3. DIRECTION KEYS: Slews your telescope in the desired direction. Use
the direction keys to center objects in the eyepiece or to manually
slew your telescope.
4. CATALOG KEYS: Allow direct access to each of the main catalogs in
the database of thousands of objects.
Your telescope contains the following 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, constellations and asterisms
• Deep Sky – Custom lists of all the best galaxies, nebulae, and
clusters, as well as the complete Messier and select NGC catalogs.
5. IDENTIFY: Searches your telescope's database and displays the
name and offset distances to the nearest matching objects.
6. MENU: Displays setup and utilities functions, such as tracking rate,
user-defined objects, and others.
7. OPTION (CELESTRON LOGO): Works similar to the SHIFT key on a
keyboard and can be used in combination with other keys to access
more advanced features and functions to be added with later
firmware updates.
8. ENTER: Pressing ENTER allows you to select any of your telescope's
functions, accept entered parameters and slews 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 of the best
objects in the sky and automatically slews your telescope to those objects.
11. SCROLL KEYS: Used to scroll 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. The buttons
have an angled shape to make it easier to locate without looking.
12. MOTOR SPEED: Similar to the Rate Button on the original NexStar
hand control, it allows you to change the motor's speed when the
direction keys are pressed.
