StarSense technology was innovated by Celestron’s engineers, allowing a Celestron computerized telescope to automatically align itself with the night sky. It’s never been easier to locate celestial objects. Now, this technology can be ported to a computerized Sky-Watcher mount with this new Interface Box, further expanding the number of scopes that can take advantage of StarSense’s revolutionary auto alignment!
The use of the interface box means you can, if you wish, also use this StarSense with any GOTO Celestron mount, by simply leaving out the interface box - so it works with BOTH Sky-Watcher and Celestron mounts!
How it works: StarSense camera and hand control both plug into the Interface Box and the Interface Box plugs into the mount’s hand control port. In minutes your SkyWatcher mount is aligned and you are off to the stars
FEATURES:
