TelescopeMan_Fake_Alignment →
TelescopeMan demonstrates a fake alignment on a Meade ETX125PE- using the 497 hand controller. This will align your scope before any stars are visible. This same technique will work on any of Meade’s scopes using the 497 controller such as theLX90 model with either the LNT module, or GPS; and a similar technique can be used with many other brands of GoTo telescopes.
