iOptron CEM40G Mounting GoTo LiteRoc: mounting with built-in auto-guide<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n

The iOptron CEM40 is a centrally-balanced equatorial GoTo mount with a payload capacity of 18 kg (40 lbs) excluding counterweight, at a head weight of only 7.2 kg (15.8 lbs). The weight of the mount and telescope rests directly above the center of the tripod, giving a remarkably quiet and stable setup.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The G version includes the iGuider: a complete car guide with its own optics and camera, built into the mounting bracket. You can use it without a separate tracking device, without additional weight, and with fewer cables.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Together with the built-in iPolar and GPS, this is the most integrated CEM40 for astrophotography.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Guiding without off-axis guider<\/strong><\/h4>\n\n\n\n

The iGuider looks at the assembly from its own perspective and continuously guides you via guiding software such as PHD2. Your photo setup remains light and tidy, and the balance is no longer affected by a separate guide scope.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

For special cases, the ST-4 port remains available for an external guide.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n

GoTo, GPS, and heated handgrips<\/strong><\/h4>\n\n\n\n

The Go2Nova 8407+ hand controller contains a database of over 200,000 objects and has a built-in display heater, so the screen remains readable even in freezing temperatures. The 32-channel GPS in the mount automatically sets the time and position.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Computer control is via USB. Wireless control with SkySafari or ASCOM is possible with the optional iStarFi WiFi module. An ST-4 port is ready for autoguiding.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n

Accurate and quiet mechanism<\/strong><\/h4>\n\n\n\n

Low-consumption stepper motors control both axes. The periodic error remains within plus or minus 7 arcseconds and can be further reduced with recording PPEC.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The dual saddle accommodates Vixen and Losmandy rails, the large geared clutch levers also work with gloves on, and internal cable management keeps the setup tidy.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n
