Chart(SA or UA):
Once the scroll is finished, the screen will display the catalog designation and the coordinates. You can replay the
information by pressing the ENTER button again. While the information is scrolling, the top part of the display will read
GO TO. The leading "G" will be blinking. This indicates that you can press ENTER again and the telescope will slew to
the object. The screen will display the catalog designation and the coordinates.
So, from the CATALOG menu, you can press ENTER twice and the Ultima 2000 will slew to the object for you.
If the object displayed is not the one you want, you may press the UP button to display the next entry for this catalog. You
can scroll through the entire catalog in sequential order by pressing the UP button. Pressing the DOWN button scrolls
through in reverse order. This only allows you to scroll items in the currently selected catalog. For example, if ST055
displayed while you pressed the UP button, the readout will display ST056. If you scroll through the end of the catalog,
the readout will roll over and start with the first entry, ST001. If you scroll through the catalog backwards, once it reaches
zero, it will roll over to the last entry in the catalog.
If an erroneous catalog number is entered (like M505 or RNGC 9000) the readout will automatically default to the first
entry for that particular catalog (i.e., M001, ST001, RNGC0001, or NEW01). Also, each time you enter the catalog
menu, the readout will display the last object accessed in either CATALOG, GO TO, or ALIGN menus.
In the SETUP menu you can use the CHART sub-menu to select which catalog you want the readout to display; either Sky
Atlas 2000.0 or Uranometria.
