What are the steps to polar align my telescope using “All-Star” polar alignment?

0

• Align the telescope with the sky using the “Two-Star Alignment” method. • Select a suitable bright star from the Hand Control’s database and slew the telescope to the star. • Press the Align button and select Polar Align => Align Mount from the list. • The telescope will then re-slew to the alignment star and ask you to center it in the eyepiece in order to “Sync” on the star. • The telescope will slew to the position that the star should be if it were accurately polar aligned. • Use the mounts altitude and azimuth adjustments to place the star in the center of the eyepiece and press the Align button. • Update the telescope’s star alignment if necessary.
