Sun Warning
It is important to remember that slewing to objects near the sun can be quite dangerous to your eyesight. If the sun is
above the horizon, the Keypad will go through an additional check routine to be sure that the object or position that you
select is outside a safe viewing zone. If the object is the sun itself or within 15 degrees of the sun, the following warning
will display:
Please be sure that you have installed a good quality SAFE lter that covers the
optics in front of the telescope. Never use eyepiece lters since they may break due
to the intense heat of the sun. Do not use solar lters that are cracked (glass), torn
(Mylar) or have many pinholes (either glass and Mylar).
WARNING: Looking at
or near the SUN can
DAMAGE your eyes.
