Using the
Hand Control
Your NexStar SLT's computerized hand control
contains a database of thousands of celestial
objects. But before your telescope can accurately
point to these objects in the sky, you need to align
the database to known positions (stars) overhead.
Celestron's SkyAlign procedure makes this process
quick and easy. To align with SkyAlign, follow the
steps below.

observing location.
