Set Guiding Rate
4.8.4.5.
This is an advanced function for autoguiding when a guiding camera is utilized either via a Guide
Port or using the ASCOM protocol. Before autoguiding, align the polar axis carefully. Select an appropriate
guiding speed. The latest firmware allows you to set the R.A. and DEC guiding speed differently. The R.A.
guiding speed can be set between ±0.01X to ±0.90X sidereal rate. The DEC guiding speed can be set
between ±0.10X to ±0.99X sidereal rate. Follow the instructions of your autoguiding software for detailed
guiding operation. The default number is 0.5X.
The guide port wiring is shown in Figure 3, which has the same pin-out as that from Celestron /
Starlight Xpress / Orion Mount / Orion/ QHY/ZWO autoguider camera.
If you have an autoguider which has a pin-out the same as the ST-I from SBIG, such as Meade/
Losmandy/ Takahashi/ Vixen, make sure a proper guiding cable is used. Refer to your guiding camera and
guiding software for detailed operation.
WARNING: DO NOT plug your ST-4 guiding camera cable into the HBX port. It will damage the
mount or guiding camera electronics.
