product description
True precision for your astronomical future
GM 4000 HPS: max. 150kg load capacity
- Unguided imaging
- Satellite tracking
- high-precision spectroscopy
- Exoplanet search – even for field use!
DRIVE MECHANICS
- Self-locking, high-precision worm-wheeldrives with classic friction clutches
- High torque Servo DC motors eliminate imbalance motor stall
- GM 4000 HPS II with ultra portable on-axis encoder mount for uncompromizing stand-alone field use
DRIVE ELECTRONICS
- Ultra-high-precision RA & Dec on axis encoders, featuring more than 10 million increments (interpolated), fully encapsulated and calibrated
- Up to 0.5" RMS tracking accuracy - for long duration unguided imaging
- Closed loop (encoder controlled) satellite tracking speed - up to 20°/s
- Extremely low power consumption and miniature format (20 x 15 x 8cm) electronics
- After an observing session, the entire electronics box (motor electronics with Linux computer) and HC can be easily detached and protected from premature aging and moisture damage
- Service friendly design - electronics box and HC can be easily exchanged for service, without returning the precisely adjusted HPS mount
FIRMWARE
- Automatic refraction correction function implemented – the only way for perfect unguided tracking during long exposures
- Intuitively operated V2.x software and QSI motor control system, integrated into an onboard Linux computer – intelligence built-in
- No external PC or laptop mandatory in the field – all functions in the onboard computer can be accessed via stand-alone hand control unit (HC)
- Precise multistar pointing models, entering satellite and comet trajectories, programming individual observing sessions and much more
- Well documented firmware and drivers, working autonomously w/o additional planetarium software, without need for external RS-232 converters/USB ports
- Excellent documentation in English and German
- Electronic balance - requiring one time balancing only
- Ultra stable pointing model for safe East/West load reversal – no change of pointing model necessary when changing accessories
- Precise polar alignment – software aided and accomplished within minutes
- Fully remote controlled via your observatory PC with 10/100 LAN included, perfectly prepared for your future Internet observatory
