With the Celestron StarSense Autoguider, using a Celestron telescope
for astroimaging has never been easier. This all-in-one accessory can
help with every aspect of telescope alignment and tracking. With your
new StarSense Autoguider (SSAG), you can:
Automatically align your equatorial or altazimuth telescope to the night
sky in just a few minutes. Once aligned, your telescope will fi nd and
center objects with enhanced pointing accuracy.
Guide your telescope accurately during long astroimaging exposures
without any additional alignment required (not even polar alignment).
• Quickly and accurately polar align your equatorial mount, if desired.
Please read this manual before setting up and using your StarSense
Autoguider. You can fi nd the most current version of this instruction
manual on the StarSense Autoguider product page at celestron.com.
WARNING Never point the StarSense Autoguider at the Sun! Doing
so will damage SSAG’s image sensor. This damage is not covered under
your warranty. Keep SSAG’s cover cap on during the day.
