Choose this option when you want to move the SXD2 mount in the
altitude and azimuth direction (horizon coordinates) in the celestial
sphere. Make sure that the direction keys display
on the lower right of the screen are as follows.
The setting is defaulted to “AltAz”
：Altitude（＋）（Highest ＋90°）
：Altitude（−）（Lowest −90°）
：Azimuth（＋）（North→East→South→West→・・・）
：Azimuth（−）（North→West→South→East→・・・）
RADEC
Choose this option when you want to move the SXD2 mount in the directions of right ascension and declination (celestial
coordinates) in the celestial sphere. Make sure that the direction keys display at the lower right of the screen is as follows.
Note: As long as the polar alignment is completed, the motion of
the mount corresponds to the directions of right ascension and
declination regardless of the orientation of the mount to the
polar axis.
Note: : Choose this option when you use an autoguider.

：DEC.（−）（Minimum −90°）
：R.A.（＋）
：R.A.（−）
