Sky Commander (SC) XP4 Computer w/
Flash Cable and Users Manual.
The SC "sets" the
position of the telescope with the use of two optical
encoders. Simply initialize the SC by pointing the
telescope at two alignment stars. It's as simple as
that. Just select the "catalog", press enter and push the
telescope until the SC "zeros out its reading".
The SC will work with any of the common telescope mountings
-- Dobsonian, German equatorial or Fork. Yes, it works with
equatorial platforms too.
