BRESSER Nebula 5 Wifi-Network EQ/AZ mount with Raspberry-Pi control unit
The new BRESSER Nebula 5 EQ/AZ Wifi-Network Mount is a precise and quiet telescope mount - ideal for astrophotography. The control box offers numerous central connection possibilities for various accessories such as cameras, filter wheels and motorized focusers via USB (2.0/3.0), which simplifies the setup of a professional astrophotography machine.
BRESSER is committed to this premium product with innovation combined with Made in Italy quality. The manufacturer's many years of experience in frame construction guarantees a high-end device with first-class functionality and maximum reliability. In addition, the team of hardware and software developers in Italy allows a quick response in technical support and in the adaptation of new device drivers. All under the motto "Professionals in action!"
The mount is controlled via pre-installed web application software, accessible via Wifi and Ethernet cable connection. The philosophy behind the Nebula GoTo system is to provide the user with a control system independent of a normal PC, which can be controlled in all its functions via a smart device such as a cell phone or tablet. However, it does not exclude the traditional use of computers of all types and brands, which can be connected to the system by cable or wirelessly.
The controller of the BRESSER Nebula GoTo system is a Raspberry Pi 4 microcomputer, which allows the complete control of the whole system (mount, camera, etc.) without the need of another external device. The BRESSER Nebula GoTo system is already equipped with all Linux-based applications needed to perform all astrophotographic functions.
The existing INDI environment allows control of almost all devices (cameras, filter wheels, rotators, etc., including observatory domes) needed to conduct local or remote astrophotography sessions.
The system also offers high flexibility for users who prefer to use traditional computer client applications such as Cart du Ciel (Star Chart), TheSkyX, SkySafari, Stellarium and other planetarium software, as well as SGP, Nina, CCD Ciel and other astrophotography tools. This full compatibility is ensured by adopting the Alpaca communication protocol, which allows the use of traditional ASCOM platform drivers for native INDI devices.
State-of-the-art frame construction
BRESSER Nebula frames are CNC machined from stainless steel and aluminum. The simple and functional design is thanks to a renowned Italian frame manufacturer, who has designed and now also manufactures these exquisite BRESSER products 100%. So get ready for a stable and yet easy to transport mount, which despite its light weight of only 13 kg (incl. tripod) allows a high load capacity of up to 20 kg.
Visual observation
For visual observation and direct use, control the mount with the handheld box included in the package. Alternatively, connect the Nebula 5 via WIFI directly to your smartphone or tablet and use the virtual handheld control box. Of course, you can also adjust all configuration parameters via the web app. The user interface is deliberately designed simple and clear to ensure intuitive operation.
Astrophotography
Here, the Nebula mount shows its full strength. Whether mobile or stationary, remote operation capability is crucial. Connect your laptop or PC either via WIFI or with a LAN cable (recommended for faster data transmission) directly to the mount's Raspberry Pi control unit. Then use the pre-installed Kstars/EKOS software to control the mount and all external devices such as cameras, motorized focus, filter wheel, etc. Alternatively, you can also control the unit directly with your own software. Applications such as Cart du Ciel (Star Chart), TheSkyX, SkySafari, Stellarium and other planetarium programs, as well as SGP, Nina, CCD Ciel and other astrophotography tools can be used without problems.
2-in-1 mount with EQ and AZ modes
If necessary, the Nebula can be switched from equatorial to azimuthal mode. This is especially advantageous for nature observation or satellite tracking. Thus, the mount can be used for the most varied purposes and is not limited to astronomy alone.
Ability to adapt up to two optics
Do you want to adapt several optics? This is not a problem either. Simply use the option to replace the counterweight bar with another telescope. Use the second optic simply as a counterweight to the main telescope. Set the Nebula 5 to azimuthal mode, remove the counterweight bar and screw an extension adapter with a suitable telescope coupling directly to the mount.
