Pack SkyWatcher newton 200/1000 BD telescope with rack and pinion focuser and NEQ5 PRO GOTO mount with customized introductory course
IN TELESCOPIOMANIA WE OFFER YOU NOW TOGETHER WITH YOUR TELESCOPE, OUR PERSONALIZED COURSE OF INITIATION OF ASTRONOMY AND USE OF YOUR GOTO TELESCOPE.
TelescopesSKYWATCHEROf the seriesNEQ5 PROOffer astronomical telescopes of high optical quality for the discerning amateur. Newton reflecting telescopes feature high light gathering capability combined with portability. They are capable of distinguishing outstanding, fine details of solar system and deep sky objects. Their large aperture allows you to observe galaxies, nebulae and star clusters the way you've always wanted to see them.
The attention it paysSKYWATCHERThe high level of quality and the high level of demand, ensure that the user will always have in his hands a telescope that will give him the maximum of its possibilities.
AtSKYWATCHERAre aware that the amateur astronomer places great expectations on the equipment he or she purchases. In this senseSKYWATCHERHas been able to guarantee the satisfaction of its equipment users for decades.
This equipment consists of a newton reflector optical tube and a newton reflector optical tubeBlack Diamond 200/1000mmWith rack and pinion focuser and German equatorial mountNEQ5 PRO.
TelescopesSKYWATCHERSupplied with a German equatorial mount with integrated SynScan system are high quality observation platforms with well thought-out mechanics and electronics.
The main characteristics of the systemsGOTOAre summarized below:
PC operation:
The SynScan mounts ofSKYWATCHERInclude the revolutionary SynScan Computer Controller as standard. Locating an astronomical object has never been so easy and fun. The telescope responds immediately to keystrokes on the controller, executing the indicated operations. The SynScan series telescopes can also be remotely controlled from a PC using any Planetary software (Cartes du Ciel, The Sky, etc) and via RS-232 connection to the control knob. There is even the possibility to optionally purchase a GPS to facilitate the most accurate entry of time, date and location. The SynScan firmware can be upgraded via internet with a specific and free software.
Motors, slewing rings and bearings:
SaddlesSKYWATCHERThe SynScan series uses DC stepper motors with high torque capacity and micro-stepping control technology for maximum precision. Bronze crown and worm gear system for precision mechanical incremental movement to minimize gear backlash.
Tracking speeds and modes
The versatility of the SynScan system allows various search and guidance speeds to be selected. The tracking modes are: Lunar, Solar and Sidereal. The mount is compatible with use in both the Northern and Southern hemispheres.
Database
The SynScan computer includes a database of more than 40,000 objects in memory. The library includes objects for advanced studies, following the existing catalog system: NGC, IC, Caldwell, Messier and other lists plus 25 user-definable objects (comets, asteroids, etc).
Astrophotography
Astrophotography enthusiasts will greatly appreciate the presence of the AUTO-GUIDER port that allows autoguider functions to be performed through a PC. The SynScan firmware includes the SynScangramming algorithm for periodic error correction (this error is natural and inherent to all corona-bisenfin systems). In addition, this algorithm can be complemented with the Backlash compensation function (technical term to describe gear backlash) for both AR and DEC. In this way it is possible to have uniform GOTO's and tracking.
