Step 7. Connecting Cables; Step 8. Setting Controller - iOptron iEQ30 Pro Instruction Manual

3.2.7. STEP 7. Connecting Cables

Attach one RJ11 connector of a coiled cable into the socket on the bottom of the DEC unit and
the other end into the DEC socket located on the main control unit.
Use another coiled cable to connect the hand controller to the HBX socket located on the main
control unit. DO NOT plug the cable into Port or Guide port.
Plug the 12V DC power supply into the Power socket on the main control unit. The red LED will
be on when the power switch is turned on.

3.2.8. STEP 8. Setting Controller

The iEQ30 Pro mount is equipped with a GPS receiver which will receive the time, longitude
and latitude information for your current location from satellites after a link is established. However,
there are still some parameters which need to be entered to reflect your location, such as time zone
information and whether daylight saving time is currently in effect. This information will be stored in the
hand controller memory along with longitude and latitude coordinates until they need to be updated.
A clear sky and open space outside is needed for the GPS to establish a link with the satellites.
The GPS is installed on the top of the main board under main control board cover. If the GPS module
has difficulty receiving the satellite signal, you may rotate the R.A. axis to one side to exposure the
GPS module.
