Offset setting of longitude



 		The EM-200 provides a stable support for all types of instrument (refractor, reflector or cassegrain) weighing up to 18kg. The modern aesthetic design of the EM-200 is highly attractive as well as beautifully functional. The RA and DEC stepper motors are fully integrated into the mounting, the high precision design and construction provides cyclic errors lower than +/- 5 arc seconds.

The integrated polar alignment telescope has an illuminated reticule which can be dimmed to suit the user or observing conditions. This in conjunction with the precision altitude and azimuth adjusters will typically give polar alignment accuracy within 2 minutes of arc of the celestial pole.

With a function-full hand controller, options on tripods and piers and also optional digital setting circles the EM-200 is an ideal mounting for the serious amateur.

350x and 700x Temma "Go To" versions now available.

All "Go To" mounts are provided with RS232C cable, ST-4 or ST-7 cable shaft encoders and first quality electric motors.

The mount can be operated in Temma mode and in the normal mode using the hand control.

The Temma requires the use of a PC to operate.

EM-200可提供穩定支持給所有器材,載重可達18公斤. 它既具現代化設計的吸引性, 亦具完美的功能. 赤經及赤緯步進馬達內藏於赤道儀內, 其高精度設計與構造使週期誤差低於+/-5弧秒.

EM-200的綜合極軸望遠鏡配備可調光暗視野照明, 配合仰角及地平微調, 極軸調較精度達2弧分.

全功能手控、可選配木製三腳及柱腳, 或附加定位度盤, 無疑EM-200是高級業餘發燒友的理想赤道儀.

350倍及700倍天馬 "Go To" 版本供選擇.

NJP Temma II Equatorial Mount
The NJP mount offers a high capacity (70lb load) platform for a variety of photo and visual uses requiring the use of two instruments. The PD-8XY motor drive has a built-in connection for an auto guider and a 10x sidereal high speed mode allows electric centering of an object in the field, rather than using the less accurate manual override. The NJP also uses a side loading plate to insure that as the mount is elevated and depressed for proper polar alignment, it moves in a straight line. No other manufacturer includes this unique, useful feature in their mount.

175x and 350x Temma "Go To" version now available. All "Go To" mounts are provided with RS232C cable, ST-4 or ST-7 cable shaft encoders and first quality electric motors. The mount can operate in Temma mode and in the normal mode using the hand control.

The Temma requires the use of a PC to operate.

EM-500 Temma II Equatorial Mount

The state-of-the-art EM-500 Temma II mount has a tracking accuracy that is guaranteed to +/- 3.5 arc seconds without periodic error correction and it runs off of 24V DC. The EM-500 Temma II slews at 560X the Sidereal rate. The Temma II GoTo System can be operated via The Sky, Level IV software and is closed-loop. This means that the telescope can be moved manually without restarting the GoTo system. The mount can also be operated in manual (non-GoTo) mode without connecting to a computer and dual-axis tracking is available in this mode.

The self-contained illuminated polar finder is accurate to two arc minutes of the pole. Autoguider and CCD cables are available for most CCD cameras including serial, RJ-11, and USB connectors. Main gears are phosphor-bronze with matching moly-steel worms for greater accuracy and durability vs. aluminum & stainless steel. New, precision micro-stepping motors provide high durabilty with softer pulse-peaks for better imaging. No need for servos and variable-voltage systems that reduce longevity.

Temma-2 Technical Report  Temma-2 技術報告

The Temma-2, which is the third generation of Takahashi's go-to mounts, is now available. The Temma-2 is the successor to the Temma-PC. The programing has been updated to allow it to perform more complicated tasks. The new and improved Temma-2, which along with the new more advanced programing, will permit the Temma-2 to drive in both axes at the same time thereby reducing the go-to time.
Different from an open loop system, the servo control system employed by the Temma-2 monitors the real-time position for the R.A. and Dec. This is accomplished by using a 16-bit CPU to make these complicated calculations.

Highly Integrated Built-in Printed Circuit
The LSI used to drive the stepping motors allows the components to be miniaturized making the entire assembly smaller.
