Celestron 9.25-inch Schmidt-Cassegrain Optical Tube Assembly
The Aluminum Optical Tube of the OTA contains Celestron's premium StarBright XLT coatings. The OTA includes a 2350 mm focal length (f/10), a 25 mm eyepiece (94x) and a 6x30 finderscope. The visual back can be used with 1.25-inch accessories like the star diagonal which provides for a more comfortable viewing position, and it also includes the dovetail rail compatible with the CG-5 mount.
Celestron CGX Equatorial Mount and Tripod
The Celestron CGX Equatorial Mount holds a 55 lb load capacity. It contains worm wheels that are constructed with spring-loaded brass worm wheel and stainless steel worm gear that reduce friction and provide optimum gear mesh for heavier loads. The dual-fit dovetail saddle accepts both the wide, Losmandy/CGE style and the narrower Vixen/CG-5 style dovetails.
Motor
Improved motors provide more torque and tracking under heavy loads and the heavy duty belt-drive system minimizes backlash while providing smooth motor operation at full capacity. The mount has internal cabling for worry-free remote operation. Power input and lower accessory ports remain stationary while the mount slews to avoid snags.
Internal Sensors
There are two internal optical sensors for simple and safe remote operation. The Home sensor allows the mount to always start in the index position regardless of orientation before a power reset and the Limit sensor automatically shuts off slewing or tracking before reaching the hard stop fail safe. The internal hard stops for both axes prevent cable tension and tripod strike.
New Software
The mount includes control software developed in conjunction with PlaneWave Instruments for professional level control operation and imaging. Software includes the multi-point mount modeling for extremely precise pointing accuracy and many more additional features for remote astroimaging.
Electronics
The mount comes with two Aux accessory ports and an autoguider port. NexStar+ hand control with USB port tells you much about the night sky with a press of a button. The USB 2.0 port is used to connect directly to the PC with PWI Software. The mount is PPEC ready. There is a threaded 12VDC power input barrel connector for added comfort and an Internal Real Time Clock which saves time and site information. The mount supports WiFi and wireless operation accessories which are sold separately.
Stainless Steel Tripod
The 2-inch stainless steel tripod legs have a wider stance for improved stability under heavy loads. Tripod legs can be collapsed with accessory tray installed for faster setup and transport. The new accessory tray holds three 1.25 and two 2 eyepieces with an upright stand for your smartphone or other accessories.
