Computing Dome Offset Distance

Figure 94: Diagram showing the derivation of dome offset equation for the Paramount MX or Paramount MX+.
You may wish to permanently mount your Paramount so that center of the dome is coincident with the
center of the intersection of the mount's right ascension and declination axes.
One of the required measurements to do so is the distance from the center of the Paramount to the
intersection of the mount's right ascension and declination axes (which changes with latitude).
Use the equations in the table below to compute the distance from the center point of the Paramount
mount to the intersection of the right ascension and declination axes.
