PrimaLuceLab S.p.A. EAGLE4 User Manual
First use: powering other instruments connected to the EAGLE
EAGLE incorporates a power bridge to which you can connect up to 4 instruments such as mount, camera, filter wheel and
electronic focuser. Through a special internal board, EAGLE distributes 12V power to 4 ports that connect the various de-
vices using the special optional cables. All ports are indexed and threaded to prevent the cable from unwanted disconnec-
tions or reversed polarity.
CAUTION: EAGLE distribute power only at 12V. If the instrument you want to use requires a different voltage, do
NOT connect it to the power ports of EAGLE.
CAUTION: the power output from the OUT port of EAGLE depend on power supply or battery connected to the
IN power port of the EAGLE. Since several instruments for astronomy strictly require a fixed 12V power,
you have to check that your power source provides a stable 12V voltage. So if you want power EAGLE with
a battery, make sure that this is equipped with a specific 12V voltage regulator. DO NOT CONNECT TO THE
EAGLE A BATTERY WITHOUT 12V VOLTAGE REGULATOR since it may damage the other instruments powe-
red by EAGLE ( like the cooled camera or the mount).
