speeds that move the telescope (see "Slew Speeds," page 14).
NOTE: Pressing the Speed/? key briefly changes the slew speed. Holding
down the Speed/? key longer (one to two seconds) accesses the Help

information on how to accomplish whatever task is currently active.
Hold down the Speed/? key and then follow the prompts on the display to access
details of Starfinder functions in the Help feature. The Help system is essentially
an on-screen instruction manual.
If you have a question about a Starfinder operation (i.e., INITIALIZATION,
ALIGNMENT, etc.), hold down the Speed/? key and follow the directions that scroll
on the second line of the LCD screen. When a word appears in [brackets], press
ENTER to access the word in the Starfinder Glossary. A definition or more detailed
information is displayed. Press MODE to return to the scrolling Starfinder Help
display.
When satisfied with the Help provided, press MODE to return to the original
screen and continue with the chosen procedure.
