TIME AND LOCATION

View / Modify Time: Allows you to view and
make changes to the date, time, time zone offset,
and Daylight Savings Time .
View / Modify Location: Allows you to view and
make changes to the longitude and latitude of your
current location . Please note that changing your
current location will result in a loss of alignment .
You will need to realign your telescope after making
location changes . Press the OPTION
button to toggle between city database and
longitude/latitude .
Time / Location Source: Choose where
StarSense retrieves its time information . This
is automatically acquired when you first start using
StarSense, but you can choose to manually
change these settings if you wish . Some
telescopes, like the Advanced VX, have a Real
Time Clock (RTC), others like the CPC/CPC DX
have a Global Positioning System (GPS), which
saves and keeps track of time . If your telescope
has neither of these, you will need to enter the time
manually when setting up your telescope .
