    * 40,000+ object database The expanded, programmable user database includes the complete Messier, NGC, IC and Caldwell
catalogs. Customized lists of all the best galaxies, nebulae and other deep-sky objects. Room for hundreds of user defined
objects.
    * Quick Align -- An easy way to get the altazimuth mount tracking without actually aligning on two stars.
       
    * Hibernate -- This power saving device allows you to power down the telescope without losing your alignment. The optional
CN-16 GPS accessory must be connected. All you have to do is enter the correct time. Hibernate allows you to look for planets in

    * AutoAlign -- Automatically aligns the telescope in altazimuth mode using the optional CN-16 GPS Accessory.
       
    * Wedge Align Algorithm -- Automatically aligns the telescope to the celestial pole. Essential when you are performing a
polar alignment on an equatorial wedge.
       
    * Auto North and Level Compatible -- Automatically finds North and Level with more precision than can be done by hand,
getting you closer to your alignment stars.
       
    * User-Defined Slew Limits -- Prevents the telescope from slewing beyond the user-defined horizon in altazimuth and
equatorial mode.
       
    * Cord Wrap -- Prevents the telescope from wrapping its cords when attaching optional accessories.
