QUICK START: ALIGNING STARSENSE

Set up your telescope in a relatively unobstructed
area that shows most of the sky . If you have
obstructions like buildings or trees, StarSense will
skip them during the auto alignment procedure .
Note: If your sky is heavily obstructed, please see
"StarSense Manual Align".
Connect the StarSense Hand Control and camera
to your telescope as described in Assembly .
Remove the camera's dust cap .
1. Set your telescope up with an eyepiece and
position the telescope in its home position or index
marks . Equatorial mounts should be roughly
polar aligned, but precise polar alignment is not
required . Alt-Az mounts should have the altitude
aligned to its index marks with the tube level to
the ground .

Control and Camera will boot up . In about 30
seconds, the Hand Control will display

next value .
Once the location is entered, StarSense will check
your telescope for information it may already have,
such as GPS or site information saved from a Real
Time Clock (RTC) . If none of this information is
available, StarSense will prompt you for time and
date (this is primarily needed for locating Solar
System Objects and establishing the horizons on
EQ mounts) . You only need to enter this information
once for a given observing location .
6. When prompted with the Select Time Source
screen, select the time source available for your
telescope . StarSense will choose the best source
found . A checkmark indicates which time source
is selected . Press ENTER to continue .

complete, the number of stars found will be displayed .
If no stars are found, a message "Too Few Stars" will
display and StarSense will move the telescope to
another region of sky .
