This manual introduces the assembly, leveling, moving, balancing and power connection of CGEM DX computerized equatorial mount.
The Celestron CGEM DX is a computerized GoTo equatorial mount designed for amateur astronomers. It features a comprehensive database of over 40,000 objects, fully enclosed optical encoders for precise position location, and an ergonomically designed structure that disassembles into portable pieces. The mount includes standard features such as database filter limits for custom object lists and storage for user-defined objects.
Never look directly at the sun or use the telescope to project an image of the sun onto any surface, as this can cause permanent eye damage or internal heat build-up that damages equipment.
The comprehensive database contains over 40,000 objects, including customized lists of all the best deep-sky objects.
Depending on which telescope model you have, you will receive either one, two or three counterweights.
