13 Mounting Camera, Filter wheel, Derotator or eyepiece
Your equipment can be mounted on the fork (=focus 1 and 2). That equals the standard setup. If you want to
use the optional 3
rd
and 4
th
focus, this needs to be considered when manufacturing the telescope.

Depending on your camera model and if you want to use accessories, such as derotator or filter wheel the setup
looks different.
In most cases ASA produces adapters appropriate for your used devices. You can find an exploded assembly
drawing of your setup in the appendix of this manual.
Do not look unprotected through the nasmyth foci when the telescope is aiming on a bright
object! This might harm your eyes.
