Our popular computers allow you to easily guide to hundreds, thousands or even millions of objects in the database without knowing
where they are and without using a star chart. You don′t even need to level or polar align your scope. You can spend more
time observing and less time hunting for objects. These computers are sometimes called digital setting circles because the early
versions only displayed right ascension and declination, thus replacing the telescopes mechanical setting circles. The Next
Generation Computers (or MAX computers as they are sometimes called) are not ″Go-To″ computers in that they do not
move the telescope for you. JMI OUTFITS THE FOLLOWING TELESCOPES AND MOUNTS WITH ENCODERS FOR USE WITH OUR COMPUTER UNITS:

For specific information requirements see document no. 12 in our Document Library.
JMI encoder and hardware systems (encoders and gears or pulleys/belts) are generally optimized to approximately 8000
tics-per-revolution on each axis. Some older guiding computers (e.g. Sky Wizard 2) are not able to handle the high resolution
without encoder errors. In these cases, please request a low resolution system . It should be noted that, based on our experience,
doubling the total resolution on each axis will place an object 10%-50% closer to the middle of the field of view depending on the
quality (orthogonality) of the mount. Better quality mounts will see less improvement with the high-resolution encoders than
those of slightly lower quality. (Nothing will be able to overcome the defects of a poor quality mount.).
Truss Rod Shroud
Blocks stray light and air currents and helps keep dust off of the mirrors. Made of light-weight black fabric with securing
snaps and elastic at both ends.
