Compass Telescope Terms To Know: Diagonal: A mirror that deflects the ray of light 90 degrees. With a horizontal telescope tube, this device deflects the light upwards so that you can comfortably observe by looking downwards into the eyepiece. The image in a diagonal mirror appears upright, but rotated around its vertical axis (mirror image). Focal length: Everything that magnifies an object via an optic lens has a certain focal length. The focal length is the length of the path the light travels from the surface of the lens to its focal point. The focal point is also referred to as the focus. In focus, the image is clear. In the case of a telescope, the focal length of the telescope tube and the eyepieces are used to determine magnification. Lens: The lens turns the light that falls on it around in such a way so that the light gives a clear image in the focal point after it has traveled a certain distance (focal length). Eyepiece: An eyepiece is a system made for your eye and comprised of one or more lenses. In an eyepiece, the clear image that is generated in the focal point of a lens is captured and magnified still more. Magnification: The magnification corresponds to the difference between observation with the naked eye and observation through a magnifying device like a telescope. If a telescope configuration has a magnification of 30x, then an object viewed through the telescope will appear 30 times larger than it would with the naked eye. To calculate the magnification of your telescope setup, divide the focal length of the telescope tube by the focal length of the eyepiece. Moon Filters: A Moon Filter will thread directly onto the bottom of your eyepiece. Nearly all eyepieces are threaded for filters. Think of a Moon Filter like sunglasses for your telescope. Moon Filters will cut down glare and bring out much more surface detail and give you better contrast. 3 How To Set Up Note: We recommend assembling your telescope for the first time in the daylight or in a lit room so that you can familiarize yourself with assembly steps and all components.

Before using the viewfinder for the first time, remember to remove the plastic insulator that is blocking the battery from connecting. For The Viewfinder To Be Effective, It Must Be Aligned. To do this: • Insert the 20 mm eyepiece into the diagonal and power on the viewfinder by sliding the switch The Red Dot Viewfinder is Red Dot Viewfinder El Visor Red Dot es Red Dot visor Le viseur point rouge est Red Dot Viseur on its right side to an “On” powered by a battery type (bottom view) impulsado por un tipo de batería (vista desde abajo) alimenté par une batterie de type (vue de dessous) position.

The front screw Fig. 2 fig. 2 Fig. 2 will move the viewfinder up and down, and the other will move it side to side. Your viewfinder is now aligned. Front frente Devant Note: To preserve battery life, don’t forget to turn off the viewfinder after use. Using your telescope: English Spanish French After you have aligned your viewfinder, you are ready to start observing! Put the 20 mm eyepiece into the diagonal to get the widest field of view. This wider field of view will make it easier to locate and track objects. Loosen the locating screws for the altitude fine adjustment and the altitude axis to move the scope up, down and side to side until your target comes into view in the eyepiece. When you have the object well placed in the eyepiece, you can re-tighten the locating screws and fix the position of the赤点ファインダーは付属の telescope (Fig 1, #9 & Fig 2, #10). 赤 点ファインダ ー 紅點觀景器由一顆 CR-2032 CR-2032電池 (3V) で駆動してい (下面図) 紅點觀景器（底部視角） It is important to remember that the rotationます。電池交換の際は、位置決め of the Earth means objects will move out of your eyepiece fairly quickly.
