SX2WL A105M II complete telescope set with mount, tripod and eyepieces This high-quality refractor telescope set impresses with its 105 mm achromatic optics. You will be amazed when you use it to observe the surface of the moon with its craters or Saturn with its ring system. The long focal ratio of F9.5 ensures only slight colour shifts and good contrast. The telescope is manufactured in Japan and impresses with its excellent workmanship. The optics are therefore highly recommended for beginners and advanced users who value high quality and do not want plastic in the processing, because the telescope is made entirely of metal. The large focuser, which is also used on the large SD refractors, allows even heavy cameras to be attached without tilting. The supplied flip mirror allows convenient observation even in unfavourable viewing situations and also offers a T2 thread for connecting a DSLR camera. You will be amazed at what you can see in the sky with an aperture of 105 mm. For example, you can observe the rings of the planet Saturn wonderfully with it. On a good night, the two bright cloud bands and many smaller details, such as the large red spot on the planet, are also visible on Jupiter. On moonless nights, you can observe the Andromeda Nebula, Orion Nebula, Eagle Nebula, Lagoon Nebula and many other interesting objects. Furthermore, fainter celestial objects also become visible with this aperture. Depending on the darkness of the sky, the globular star cluster M13 can even be resolved into individual stars. The sturdy metal tripod allows the telescope and mount to be mounted without vibration, even in windy weather.The ultra-modern SX2WL mount is simply operated via a Wi-Fi module with your smartphone or tablet.By simply controlling the mount with your smartphone or tablet and using the free STAR BOOK Wireless app, you can easily use sky navigation functions such as automatic GoTo panning for many celestial objects. By eliminating the conventional LCD display (STAR BOOK TEN), the power consumption on the mount is reduced by up to 20%, thus enabling longer astronomical observation and astrophotography.When you touch the desired celestial object on the star chart, it is automatically pointed into the telescope's field of view and tracking begins.NOTE: An existing STAR BOOK TEN or ONE controller can also be used on this mount without any problems.Equipped with the same precision stepper motors as the top model, the AXD mount, the SX2WL brings a new standard of performance and precision to the Vixen mount family.With a photographic load capacity of 12 kg, the axis cross of the mount is just 7 kg light, making it ideal for mobile observations. In addition, the motors mounted in the lower part of the mount also serve as a counterweight and the mount therefore requires fewer weights for balancing.The SX2WL mount in detailPrecision stepper motors and micro-step motion control systemAt the heart of the SX2 are the precision stepper motors, which offer better performance and response than previous models. The micro-step motion control system scores with powerful yet very smooth drive characteristics, which are present in both fine movements and fast pans.Built-in bearingsThe bearings of the RA and DEC axes and the worm shafts have been significantly improved to reduce the load on the motors. As a result, the motors move much more smoothly than in previous models.High-precision worm gearsHigh-precision processing technologies eliminate worm gear errors. The running surfaces of the two worms and worm wheels are manufactured to be particularly smooth, enabling very precise tracking.Declination axis as counterweightThe massive motor units are installed in the lower part of the declination axis so that the center of gravity of the SX2WL is below the intersection point of the RA and DEC axes. This means you need fewer additional counterweights.Latitude adjustmentThe latitude is adjustable between 0 and 70 degrees (divided into 3 zones and adjustable in +/- 15 degrees per zone, for high, medium and low latitudes); latitude scale in 2-degree increments; fine adjustment with a tangent screw head, approx. 0.8 degrees per turn.The wireless module in detailThe Vixen Wifi adapter for EQ mounts allows you to control your Vixen mount via a smartphone or tablet. With the smartphone app "STAR BOOK Wireless" (free of charge) you can navigate the sky without any cables. The "STAR BOOK Wireless" smartphone app transforms your smartphone or tablet into a control unit for the equatorial mount in no time at all. The response delay of the mount, which is considered the biggest disadvantage of wireless connections, has been reduced to a level comparable to wired connections.Reduced power consumption compared to conventional controllers with LCD monitorThe power consumption of the mount is reduced by up to 20%, allowing longer observations than with conventionalwired controllers such as the STAR BOOK TEN.Operation similar to the STAR BOOK TEN control unitThe STAR BOOK Wireless app has a similar structure to the STAR BOOK TEN control system. Depending on the star map setting, it contains up to 259,000 celestial objects. Tap on a celestial object in the object list and start the GoTo.The mount will now automatically move to this target and bring it into the telescope's field of view.All the popular features of the STAR BOOK TEN are retainedConvenient operationWhen looking through the telescope operate the mount by swiping on the app's star chart. As there are no buttons, simply slide your finger over the star chart to operate the mount conveniently.Extensive astronomical data includedIn addition to data on easily observable celestial bodies such as Messier objects, NGC objects and IC objects, this also includes the sun, moon, planets, comets and dwarf planets.High-precision alignmentBy aligning the mount to one or two stars, you can already achieve fairly precise positioning of the mount. By aligning to three or more stars, you can achieve high-precision alignment of the mount for high magnifications. The objects are then approached precisely and centrally in the field of view of your telescope. The alignment information is saved and can be retained even when the device is switched off. By leaving the telescope in its current state after completing an observation without moving it, you can start the automatic installation with the same settings for the next observation.Individual setting optionsAs with the STAR BOOK TEN controller, the app offers various individual settings, such as gear backlash compensation, night mode in red, autoguider, variable GoTo speed and LED brightness. You can also set the timing of the reversal of the objective tube (meridian flip) as required.Even if the object moves to the south during tracking, you can prevent the telescope tube from reversing.Important information: Cannot be used on old SX mounts with the old blue star bookTechnical informationCPU with 32-bit CISC processor 120 MHzThe unit is connected to the mount via a D-SUB 9PIN connector as with the Starbook Ten.It has a 6-pin 6-wire modular connector for external autoguider operation.Supported operating systems are Android 6 or higher, iOS 9.0 or higher, WLAN standard: IEEE 802.11b/g/n・FEATURESTelescope A80MfObjective lenses: 105 mm, achromat, coatedFocal length: 1000 mm (f/9.5)Resolution and limiting magnitude: 1.1 arc seconds; 11.9Light gathering capacity: 225xDimensions and weight: (OD) 115 mm x (L) 1110 mm; 4.8 kgViewfinder telescope: 6x24 mmAdapter and connections: 60 mm thread; 31.7 mm connectionSupplied accessories: 31.7 mm star diagonal, NPL20 mm and NPL6.0 mm eyepiecesPhotography: primary focus and eyepiece projectionSturdy metal focuserSX2WL mountRA Gear rim: 180 teethDEC gear rim: 180 teethBearing: Carbon steel / Decl. 35 mm, RA 40 mm thicknessFine height adjustment: 0° to 70°, (fine adjustment +/- 15°, height)Counterweight rod: 20 mm diameterAzimuth adjustment: Fine worm adjustmentPower supply: DC12 V; 0.4~1.7 AMaximum load: 12 kg, photographic, without counterweightCounterweight: 1x 1.9 kgTripod connection: 45 mm spigotDimensions: 36 cm (H) x 12 cm (W) x 36 cm (L)Weight: 7 kg, without counterweight32-bit CISC processor 120 MHzOperating system: Android 6 or higher, iOS 9.0 or higherConnection: D-SUB 9PIN plugAutoguider input ST4Power consumption SXD2WL+Wireless unit: DC12V / 0.3-2.0 A (load 10 kg), 0.4-2.2 A (load 15 kg)SCOPE OF DELIVERYSX2WL mountWireless UnitCounterweight: 1.9 kgMounting toolCigarette lighter cableA105M II refracting telescope31.7 mm zenith prism2 eyepieces: NPL20mm and NPL6.0mmTube ringsDovetail mount6x24 mm finder scopeSXG aluminum tripodSXG pier extension
