PART III: USING THE AZGTi MOUNT
The AZGTi mount is equipped with auxiliary encoders on both the azimuth axis and altitude
axis. Therefore, the mount can keep track of its current position even when a user unlocks the
clutches and rotates the mount in azimuth axis and altitude axis manually.
With this feature, a user can manually operate the mount anytime without worrying about los-
ing the mount’s alignment status. When the user wants to operate the mount with the SynScan
hand control again, no alignment is required and all that is needed to be done is to re-lock the
clutches.
This feature can be disabled with the SynScan hand controller or the SynScan App. If an
user does not need to rotate the mount manually after alignment, it is recommended to dis-
able this feature to obtain the best pointing accuracy.
