Quick Setup Guide

Place the accessory tray on top of the center brace

and line up the three holes. Insert the three thumb

screws through the bottom of the leg brace and

thread them into the tray.

To attach the slow-motion knobs to your mount,

ﬁrst locate the supplied hex key hidden inside the

slot in the front of your mount.

Place the slow-motion control knob over the

D-shaped gear shaft and push inward to make sure

it is fully seated. Use the hex key to tighten the

setscrews onto the gear shaft. Return the hex key to

its storage position in the front of the mount.

Hold the telescope tube next to the mount with the

dovetail bar on the tube facing the clamp on the top

of the mount arm.

Slide the dovetail bar into the clamp at the top of

the mount and tighten the hand knob on the bottom

of the clamp to secure the telescope in place.

Locate the erect image diagonal and remove the

plastic covers. Insert the barrel of the diagonal into

the focuser and secure in place by tightening the set

screws.

Insert the barrel of the 25 mm eyepiece into the

diagonal and tighten the set screw.

To install the StarSense phone dock, insert the

bayonet mount on the side of the dock into the

port on the side of the mount opposite the dovetail

clamp.

Slide the ﬁnderscope bracket into the dovetail slot

on the telescope tube near the focuser. The large

window on the ﬁnder should be facing the front

of the telescope. Secure the bracket by tightening

the setscrew on the dovetail slot.

Line up the arrow on the dock with the alignment

mark on the mount and press inward while turning

the dock counterclockwise until the orange release

button snaps into place in the hole on the dock.

To remove the dock, press the orange release button

and turn the dock clockwise until the bayonet mount

releases.

Remove the lens cap from the front of the

telescope. To observe, look through the eyepiece

as shown above. Focus the image by turning the

knobs below the focuser.

There is a small clear plastic tab inserted between the

battery and the contact. This was included to prevent

the battery from discharging during shipment. Pull

this out to allow your battery to work.

The StarSense Explorer DX mount has slip clutches

in both axes. To make large movements with the

telescope, simply hold a tripod leg with one hand

and use the other hand on the telescope tube to

push the telescope in the desired direction.

To make ﬁne adjustments or to track celestial

objects, turn both slow motion knobs as required.

Moving the

Telescope

CENTER THE TARGET IN THE EYEPIECE

Look through the telescope using your lower

powered eyepiece. Move the telescope until the

object you chose lies in the center of the view. If the

image is blurry, gently turn the focus knobs on either

side of the telescope until it comes into sharp focus.

NOTE: The image in your telescope may appear

inverted. This is perfectly normal in an

astronomical telescope.

Aligning the

Finderscope

The ﬁnder is one of the most important parts of your

telescope. It helps you locate objects and center

them in the eyepiece. The ﬁrst time you assemble

your telescope, you need to align the ﬁnder to the

telescope’s main optics. It’s best to do this during

the day*.

*SOLAR WARNING! Never attempt to

view the Sun through any telescope without

a proper solar ﬁlter!

CHOOSE A TARGET

Take the telescope outside during the day and ﬁnd

an easily recognizable object, such as a streetlight,

car license plate or sign. The object should be as far

away as possible, but at least a quarter mile away.

ADJUST THE FINDERSCOPE

Without moving the telescope, use the two

adjustment knobs to move the ﬁnder around until

the red dot appears over the same object you are

observing in the telescope’s 25 mm eyepiece.

YOUR FINDERSCOPE IS NOW ALIGNED!

It should not require realignment unless it is bumped

or dropped.

LOOK THROUGH FINDERSCOPE

Once the object is centered in your 25 mm eyepiece,

look through the ﬁnderscope and locate the red dot.

Your First

Night Out

Congratulations! Your telescope is now set up

and you are ready to explore the cosmos. Take the

telescope outside, insert your 25 mm eyepiece,

remove the lens cap, insert your smartphone into the

holder, and launch the StarSense Explorer app. The

tutorial in the app will walk you through the steps on

ﬁnding your ﬁrst astronomical target.

Attaching the

Smartphone

Remove the large cap covering the mirror on the front

of the StarSense dock.

Pull open the spring loaded slider on the top of the

phone dock and set the phone into the holder so

it is ﬂush with the bottom lip of the phone holder.

Slowly release the slider to secure the phone in

place. Most phones ﬁt into the dock with the case

on. However, you may need to remove your phone

case if it is especially bulky or unable to ﬁt into the

clamp (i.e. folio style cases).
