MONTATURA NYX-101 PEGASUS ASTRO - HARMONIC GEAR

Codice articolo: PEG-NYX101

La nuova montatura a moto armonico NYX di Pegasus Astro fa derivare il suo nome dall'antica dea greca della notte.

Questa montatura, con un peso pari a 6.4kg, ha una capacità di carico senza contrappesi pari a 20kg e 30kg con contrappesi, il tutto con alte performance e una versatilità unica.

Il corpo della montatura è completamente realizzato in alluminio 6061 e anodizzato nelle colorazioni blu e nero; un'accurata selezione delle parti interne (motori, elettroniche, etc) garantiscono performance molto elevate per parecchio tempo.

La montatura include un freno elettronico che evita lo spostamento degli assi quando questa è spenta cosi come un limite sicuro durante le operazioni di tracking.

Caratteristiche:

DC 12 Volts Battery Operation
NYX-101 requires 12 V only for its smooth operation. This means that you can use your normal 12 V battery without any additional converters. Mount consumes less than 0.6 A during tracking and up to 2.5 A during slewing.

Secure power and USB
The power cable is a GX12 type which can securely lock onto the mount. USB type B special socket ensures a secure grip. Both of these sockets are placed on the non-movable part of the mount. No cables moving during slews and tracking. A 2nd GX12 allows you to provide power to your imaging equipment.

Refraction Corrections
NYX-101 integrates a barometric sensor required to calculate atmospheric refraction corrections during mount tracking. For smaller focal lengths this is might be overkill but if you have an SCT you will notice a welcome change in your guiding performance.

Universal Saddle Plate
NYX-101 includes a low profile and rigid universal saddle that accepts Vixen and Losmandy 3-inch dovetails.

Integrated ST-4 Autoguiding Port
An ST-4 port is available at the back of the mount. Port is compatible with a simple hand controller or with an ST-4 guiding camera.

Polemaster Adapter
In the front of the mount, there is a place for the QHY Polemaster (adapter included), which allows you to perform a precise polar alignment, required for your imaging sessions.

Electronic assistant for initial polar alignment
A set of sensors allows you to orient the mount at the correct altitude and azimuth in order to have an initial, rough, polar alignment (for lower focal lengths such as camera lenses or visual observations ). Pegasus Astro´s mobile application guides you through that process.

Reverse Voltage Polarity Protection
NYX-101 has been designed with reverse voltage polarity protection. A saver if you accidentally reverse battery polarity during the night.

Optional Counterweight Support
Mount does not require counterweights for payload up to 20 kg. However, if you would like to install counterweights for higher payloads there is a compatible M12 threaded shaft hole at the end of the DEC axis.

ASCOM, INDI, Sky Safari Support
The mount fully supports ASCOM6 and INDI framework. Sky-Safari is also supported allowing you to control the mount through your mobile device.

LX200 Compatibility
LX200 protocol is fully compatible with NYX-101. Sky-Safari works out of the box with the mount.

Mobile Control
A mobile application for IOS and Android platforms allows you to control both axis of the mount, slew to thousands of night sky targets from installed catalogs and do a rough polar alignment through an electronic polar assistant.

Safety limits on RA axis
Safety limit encoders on RA axis prevent internal cable snag or collision with the tripod.

Firmware Upgrade
An easy firmware upgrade process allows you to stay up to date with bug fixes and the latest features of the mount.
