The Paramount Robotic Telescope System
Thank you for purchasing the Paramount Robotic Telescope System. The Paramount mount is an ultra-
precise German equatorial mount (GEM) that is designed to deliver unmatched pointing, tracking and
stability for amateur or professional astronomers. These precision mechanics, when commanded by
TheSky Professional, create a powerful imaging system that can help you achieve your most lofty
observing goals.
This user guide covers the basic setup and use of the Paramount MYT, Paramount MX, and Paramount
ME model mounts, as well as how to control your mount using TheSky Professional.
This document assumes you are familiar with many fundamental concepts in astronomy and are
experienced using a telescope and/or camera in conjunction with a personal computer.
If a concept presented here is new to you, consider searching the Internet to find out more information.
Unfortunately, there is simply no way that all the different facets of setting up and controlling a robotic
telescope mount can be covered in a single document.
