Glossary | Telescopes | GoTo control | Alignment method | Level North Technology

With this technology, the alignment required before observing is child's play.

Level North Technology

Alignment is particularly simple for this telescope. The signal from the integrated GPS receiver sends the computer controller the date, time and location. Level North Technology supplements this information with the actual orientation of the telescope. The telescope then automatically points to between one and three stars in succession (depending on the accuracy required). All you have to do is centre the stars in the eyepiece. This last step ensures the fine adjustment of the alignment.
