5 1. CEM60 Overview Welcome to a new type of EQ mount- The iOptron ® Center-Balanced Equatorial M ount, CEM! Its unique balance design puts the payload at the center of gravity allowi ng for greater natural stability. This also means the mount is extremely light compared to its payload—a ni ce benefit when setting up at a remote site.
6 2. CEM60 Terms 2.1. Parts List 1 SHIPPING CONTENTS There are two shipping boxes for a CEM60 mount. One box contain s an aluminum carrying case with a mount, either CEM60 (#7200) or CEM60-EC (#7201) mount he ad, a hand controller, a counterweight shaft and accessories, including a counterweight pin and lockin g screws.

Go2Nova 8407 hand controller The Go2Nova ® 8407 hand controller (HC) shown in Figure 8 is the standard co ntrollers that is used on the CEM60 mount. It has an integrated temperature controller that ensures it can be operated at -20ºC (-4ºF).
10 BACK Key: Move back to the previous screen, or end/cancel curr ent operation, such as slewing. ENTER Key: Confirm an input, go to the next menu, select a cho ice, or slew the telescope to a selected object. Arrow (▲▼◄►) Keys: The arrow keys are used to control the move ment of DEC a nd R.
11 An object name, such as “Mercury” or “Andromeda Galaxy”: Name of th e Star or celestial object that the mount is currently slewing to, GOTO or tracking; 2. Target R.A.: Right Ascension of the target object. 3. Target Declination: Declination of the target object.
12 3. CEM60Mount Assembly 3.1. Introduction You have just purchased a telescope mount that is capable of ta king you to a new level of astronomy. No matter which telescope or optical tube assembly (OTA) you select to install on the mount, the overall performance will be great ly enhanced.
13 WARNING: DO NOT rock the counterw eight shaft rigorousl y . Worm s ystem damage due to improperly gear mesh/slippage will not be covered by warranty. WARNING: The new Gear Swi tch will allow you to achieve the most precise weight balance. This also means the mount or OTA will swing FREELY when the Gea r Switch is disengaged.
14 the Nylon washer. Put the azimuth locking nuts onto the mountin g studs, hand tighten them. Adjust tripod/pier to level the mount. Figure 14. Attaching the mount STEP 3. Setting the Latitude This step requires you to know the latitude of your current location.
15 (2) Insert CW Shaft into the CW M ounting Housing. Make sure the rounded top of the shaft is fully engaged in the slot; (3) Insert the CW Shaft Locking Screw into the TOP hole and thread it onto the CW shaft ; (4) Tighten the CW Shaft Position Screw.
16 STEP 6.Balancing the Payload After attaching the scope and accessories, the mount head assembly must be balanced in both the R.A. and DEC axes to ensure minimum stress on the mount driving mechanism. WARNING: The telescope may swing freely when the R.
17 Press ENTER and select “ Set Time & Site ” Press ENTER . A time and site information screen will be displ ayed: Set Local Time The time will be updated automatically when the GPS receiver has established its link with the GPS satellites. You also can manually input the time information in case GPS does not function.
18 To adjust minutes, move the cursor to each digit and use the nu mber keys to input number directly. To change the “ behind ” o r “ ahead of ” UT, move the cursor to “ behind ” and using the ▲ or ▼ key to toggle between “ behind ” and “ ahead of ”.
19 Figure 21. Polar alignment As indicated in Figure 22, the Polar Scope Dial has been divide d into 12 hours along the angular direction with half-hour tics. There are 2 groups, 6 concentric circles marked from 36’ to 44’ and 60’ to 70’, respectively.
20 ( a ) ( b ) Figure 24. Polaris Position shown on HC (a) and where to put on polar scope dial (b) NOTE: If you are located in the southern hemisphere, Sigma Octa ntis will be chosen for Polar Alignment.

22 4. Getting Started In order to experience the full GOTO capability of GOTONOVA ® technology it is very important to set up the mount correctly before observation. 4.1. Setting the Mount and Performing Polar Alignment Assemble your CEM60 mount according to Section 3.
23 4.5. Star Identification Function The 8407 hand controller has a star identification function. Af ter Polar Alignment and Set Time & Site , slew the telescope to a bright star manually or using the GOT O function. Press ? (Help) button to identify the star that the telescope is pointing to, as well as nearby bright stars if there are any.
24 5. Complete Functions of Go2Nova ® 8407Hand Controller 5.1. Select and Slew Press the MENU button. From the main menu select “ Select and Slew .” Select an object that you would like to observe and press the ENTER key. The Go2Nova ® 8407 hand controller has a database of about 358,000 objects.
25 5.1.6. Constellations This catalog consists of 88 modern constellations. They are lis ted alphabetically. A list is attached in Appendix E. 5.1.7. Custom Objects It can store up to 60 user-defined objects, including comets. 5.1.8. Enter R.A. DEC Here you can go to a target by entering its R.
26 The telescope will now slew back to Star A to repeat the above steps. The iteration can be stopped when it is determined that the alignment error has been minimiz ed. Press BACK button to exit the alignment procedure. NOTE: It is highly recommended to use an eyepiece with illuminated c rosshairs for accurate centering.
27 5.4. Settings 5.4.1. Set Time & Site Refer to STEP 8 in Section 3.2. 5.4.2. Set Beep The Hand Controller allows a user to turn off the beep partiall y, or eve n go to the silent mode by press .
28 The guide port wiring is shown in Figure 26 , which is same as that from Celestron / Starlight Xpress / Orion Mount / Orion Autoguider/ QHY5 autoguider pinout. If you have an autoguider that has a pinout similar to ST-i of SBIG, such as Meade/ Losmandy/ Takahashi/ Vixen, make sure a proper guiding cable is used.
29 5.6. PEC Option This function only works for a non-high precision encoder versi on of CEM60 mount. 5.6.1. PEC Playback You can turn “ PEC Pl ay back On ” while you do the tracking, especially for long time astro- photography. The default status is “ PEC Playback Off when the mount is turned on.
30 5.8. Edit User Objects Besides various s tar lists available in the hand controller -- you can add, edit or delete your own user-defined objects, especially new ly found comets. You can also add your favorite observation object into the user object list for easy sky surfing.
31 Select “ Add a New Record ”. A screen will display asking to Enter R.A. and DEC : You ma y en ter the R.A. and DEC coordinates of the star you want to watch, and press ENTER t o confirm. A more useful application of this function is to store your favorite viewing objects before heading to the field.
32 6. Maintenance and Servicing 6.1. Maintenance The CEM60 mount is designed to be maintenance free. Do not over load the mount. Do not drop the mount, this will damage the mount or degrade the GOTO tracking accuracy permanently. Use a wet cloth to clean the mount and hand controller.
