Skywatcher EQ5 Enhanced Dual
Axis Motor Drives:
Skywatcher dual axis motor drive with enhanced hand controller is essential in
long-exposure astrophotography as well as a useful accessory for visual
astronomy. It controls the telescopes tracking speed to compensate for the
earth's rotation during long exposure of celestial objects.
The enhanced handset has an ST4 interface for an Auto-Guider, such as
Sky-Watcher’s Synguider. It features selectable SOLAR, LUNAR and SIDEREAL
tracking rates, plus additional selectable adjustment rates of 0.5x, 2x and 16x.
Also the hand controller has a convenient facility to invert the direction of
the UP, DOWN, LEFT, RIGHT handset keys, so you can have the same directions on
the handset as you see through your telescope. It is designed for use in both
north and south hemispheres
The motor drive runs on 4 "D" cell batteries (not included). It is supplied with
motors for both R.A. and DEC axes, motor cables, enhanced hand controller and
battery pack.
