to meet your requirements. You

Eye calibration: Use this menu item to
repeat the automatic eye calibration
process to improve the digital picture
or if you give the Star Viewer to
another user.
Star calibration: Should Universe2go
lose its orientation, or you pass the
device to a different user, you should
repeat the star calibration. Simply
choose the menu option and focus on
any bright star.
This way Universe2go can be
conveniently used by a group of
observers.
Expert calibration: Select a star –
which you know the position of – from
the list of bright stars and point at it
for the calibration process.
Compass fine adjustment (Android
only) : Select this option if the position
of a star or astronomical object
pointed at is imprecise.
Compass sensor correction (Android
only) : To test the effect of compass
fine tuning.
Brightness: It may be sensible to
adjust the display brightness in such
a way that you will see the starry sky,
but without being distracted by the
digital picture.
Four different settings are possible,
depending on the location: "city,
village, rural, dark".
Application example: For instance, if
you observe the stars from a town,
you will only see brighter stars and
you will be additionally distracted by
the environmental brightness of the
city lights. In this case the display
must be set to "bright".
If you watch in a rural area, "rural" or
"dark" may be the correct choice. The
brightness of the display will in this
case be reduced to such an extent
that the real starry sky will not be
obstructed.

3.3 Expert settings

Use the following selections to set up
the view of the night sky as you wish

Select between "Activate" and

will then be able to see the results of
your settings in "Expert mode".
