Vixen SXD2 - Slewing to an Obje Ct in CHART MODE

Chapter 4 AUTOMATIC GOTO SLEWING
The Go-To slewing in CHART MODE works in the same way as you did in SCOPE MODE .
Additionally, scrolling the star chart allows you to select any object as a target and
automatically slew your telescope to it. Here, the Great Nebula, M42 in Orion, the Hunter is
shown as a target.
Make sure the star chart is displayed in CHART MODE . If in SCOPE MODE , press the key
to switch over the screen to
CHART MODE . The screen will be highlighted in blue at its top and
bottom portions.

Zooming in the star chart allows you to make slower movements of the star chart with the • • • direction keys.
Place M42 within the target circles. Then, bring it to the center and press the key.
The dialog box will appear and confirm that you want Go-To slewing.
Note: The dialog box will not appear on the screen if the “Go-To Message” is set to off.
In this case, the Go-To slewing starts at once.
