Home Accessories SkyWatcher Accessories SkyWatcher GPS Mouse
A plug-in accessory for the SkyWatcher synscan Handset (requires V3.3 Firmware or better) that uses global positioning satellite technology to automatically locate and input the users position (longitude & latitude) to the handset. This device will enable a faster more accurate setup for all the SkyWatcher SynScan range of telescopes that use the V.3 V4 or V5 handset including the SkyWatcher Pro equatorial mounts.Supplied with PS/2 connector.
Good piece of kit to have just comes in a box, no instructions, but just plug into your handset and it will do the rest, 1st initial start up takes around 10mins to fix your location, let it do its thing and dont panic its not working. 2nd power up takes around 15secs to fix your location.

Very pleased how quick this item was received, only query i have is there was no instructions on how to set up or perhaps it just me lol (01/12/2017) - suffolkOur Reply: Apologies - simply plug in then select GPS from your synscan handset
This is good I have a HEQ5 telescope stand. I bought this to help setting up. Others say you can do without this and it is not worth it for the price. I don't agree. It helps me. It finds 11 satellites then puts in all the data including the time coords. Date etc. Very quickly. I don't have to think about it. I (06/10/2017) Neil Sharpe - North Notts
