    6 INTRODUCTIO N The 1200 German equatorial w as designed to meet the needs of the advanced observer w ho requires a mount with maximum strength and rigidity and minimum weight. The ex cess material in both axes has been carved out w hile retaining a heavily ribbed structure for internal strength and rigidity . A unique dovetail was machined into th ...

    7 A SSEM BL Y INSTRUCTIONS Please read all instructions before attempting to set up your 1200 mount. The M odel 1200 is very rugged, how ever like any precision instrument, it can be damaged by improper use and handling. Please refer to Diagram 2 for an illustration of the mount. The parts are labeled so that w e can establish common terminology. T ...

    8 Before You Leave Home Since most of us must set up our instruments in the dark, in the cold or while battling mosquitoes, a bit of preplanning and organization is important. There are few simple things that can be accomplished in the comfort of your home before heading outside. Gross Latitude Adjustment The total latitude range of the 1200 mount ...

    9 6. Determine the latitude range that you need (refer to Diagram 3) and position the hole that is marked “A” in Diagram 5 at that location. Note that this hole is located at the rounded part of the altitude bar. 7. Attach two of the screw s (one on either side of the adjuster bar), but do not tighten. Rotate the altitude adjuster bar around th ...

    10 Assemble Polar Axis Assembly to Pier or Tripod In order to track the motion of astronomical objects, the polar axis must be positioned so that an imaginary line drawn through the center of the axis points tow ard the celestial pole. At this stage of the assembly process, you want to position the mount so that it points roughly north. 1. Remove t ...

    11 Assemble Declination Axis 1. Do not have your telescope or counterw eights connected to the Dec. ax is assembly for either assembly or disassembly of the Dec. and R A axes. 2. Position the R.A. ax is as shown in Diagram 7 with the pocket "A" at the top, opposite the altitude adjuster knob. Firmly tighten R.A. clutch knobs. 3. During sh ...

    13 Attach Mounting Rings (pur chased separ atel y) Our flat and ribbed plates are constructed with key hole slots at the location where your mounting rings attach. This feature enables you to partially loosen the screw s on your rings just enough to insert them into the larger part of the keyhole, then slide the rings to the narrow part and tighten ...

    14 OPERA TION OF THE MOUNTING R.A. and Dec. Damper Knobs The R.A. and Dec. damper knobs are not intended as ax is locks. They should be tightened w ith light finger pressure so that a slight resistance can be felt when pushing an unclutched ax is by hand. This really adds to the "feel" at the end of the scope with the driv es adjusted cor ...

Position the R.A. ax is so that the counterweights are in their "lowest" position i.e. the declination ax is assembly is in the meridian (this is the usual way that German equatorials are depicted, as shown in diagram 2.) 4. Loosen the tube mounting rings and slide the tube up and down for balancing. T his is best done with the tube ...

    17 RS-232 Connectors These serial port connections are used to connect your mount to y our PC computer. You must provide your ow n straight- through (non-crossing) cables with a 9-pin (DB9) male connector to interface w ith the GTO panel. W e have provided the locking posts to secure the cable firmly. If your serial cable does not hav e a 9-pin con ...

    18 Prevent the Cables from Tangling The movement of the mount across the meridian during slew ing functions is calculated so that the cables will not tangle if they are set up properly. In addition to the motor and pow er cables that are provided with the mount, you may have additional cables for other accessories. These may be pow ered from the GT ...

Every 12 months the clutch knobs (4 for D ec. and 4 for R.A.) should be removed and 1 or 2 drops of light oil (3 in 1 household oil) should be put in the ex posed hole. If the R.A. and Dec. ax es are attached together for a long time in ou ...
