Vixen - SD-1 Single Axis Controller

This single-axis controller/drive corrector is for use with an optional #3752 Vixen MT-1 right
ascension motor drive. These are compatible with the current Vixen Great Polaris, Great Polaris
D2, and Great Polaris Economy German Equatorial Mounts and on telescopes using these mounts. It
is also compatible with the optional MT-1 on older Super Polaris and Super Polaris DX mounts and
scopes.

When controlled by the SD-1, the accuracy of the MT-1 motor drive is within +/0.005% of the
sidereal rate. Powered by 6 user supplied C batteries, this will run for approximately 20 hours.
An optional #3599 AC Adaptor is available as is an optional #3828 Manual Operation Clutch,
recommended if manual turning of RA axis wishes to be retained.
