'Monolith' GM 2000 HPS GoTo equatorial mount - (equatorial head only)

Describes the type of accessory in more detail.

For observing, the tube weight should not exceed the mount’s maximum payload. For a stable photographic combination of tube and mount, it is wise to also pay attention to the tube length and dimension, where appropriate, to stay below the maximum load, as the leverage effect on the mount must be taken into account.

An object can be selected using a hand-control box, the telescope will be automatically directed to it, and the object is positioned in the field of view.

Used for the exact alignment of an equatorial mount. Accurate astrophotography is only possible having first located the celestial north pole.
