Smart Mount constantly refines pointing accuracy each time an object is centered and updated. Compatible with both equatorial and altazimuth mounts. Smart Drive provides permanent periodic error correction (PPEC) on both axes by learning and averaging error over the course of one or more training periods thereby minimizing guiding corrections during long-exposure photographs. PPEC is available on both axes and functions in both polar and altazimuth modes.High Precision Pointing - For ultra-precise pointing during astrophotography the HPP High Precision Pointing function puts objects in the center of the field of view allowing quick easy location of deep-sky objects at the farthest limits of the telescope's capability.
