AT115EDT Setup Oct 2022r


AT115EDT Setup Oct 2022r

General EAA Rig - 10/2022
2.08 x 1.39 degree field of view, 1.20" pixel scale
ROI modes: 2k - 0.67 deg, 3k - 1.0 deg

This works well for general purpose color EAA and works for most deep sky objects except for the very largest views. It is phenomenal on globular clusters. This is just about optimal for mid-west skies, fast and maximized resolution for this size of scope. Once backlash was tuned on the mount, this scope size is relatively insensitive to moderate wind.

Scope: AT115EDT with dedicated reducer corrector, F/5.6, 644mm focal length
Camera: ASI2600mc pro - 6224x4168 pixels, 3.76um pixel size, UV-IR filtering on camera
Mount: AZ-EQ5 with pier extension
No guider
