Loosen the set screw on the star diagonal until the tip no longer ex[...]

Assembling Your CM-1100 • 13 The CM-1100 telescope come with a 9x50 finderscope used to help you locate and center objects in the main field of your telescope. To accomplish this, the finder has a built-in cross-hair reticle that shows the optical center of the finderscope. Start by removing the finder and hardware from the plastic wrapper. Inclu[...]

14 • Assembling Your CM-1100 To aid in polar aligning the mount, your telescope comes standard with a Polar Housing Finder. It installs directly on top of the polar housing of the mount. To install the Polar Finder: 1 . Locate the Polar Finder assembly. The Polar Finder assembly consists of the polar finder, mounting bracket and knurled mounting [...]

Assembling Your CM-1100 • 15 Once set up, you need to point your telescope at various portions of the sky to observe different objects. To make rough adjustments, loosen the R.A. and DEC clutch knobs slightly and move the telescope in the desired direction. Both the R.A. and DEC axis have two knobs to clutch down each axis of the telescope. To lo[...]

16 • Assembling Your CM-1100 In order for the clock drive to track accurately, the telescope’s axis of rotation must be parallel to the Earth’s axis of rotation, a process known as polar alignment. Polar alignment is achieved NOT NOT NOT NOT NOT by moving the telescope in R.A. or DEC, but by adjusting the mount vertically, which is called alt[...]

Assembling Your CM-1100 • 17 To eliminate undue stress on the mount, the telescope should be properly balanced around the polar axis. Proper balancing is crucial for accurate tracking. To balance the mount: 1 . Verify that the telescope securing knobs on the telescope mounting platform are tight. 2 . Loosen the R.A. clutch knobs and position the [...]

18 • Assembling Your CM-1100 Although the telescope does not track in declination, the telescope should also be balanced in this axis to prevent any sudden motions when the DEC clutch knob is loose. To balance the telescope in DEC: 1 . Loosen the R.A. clutch knobs and rotate the telescope so that it is on one side of the mount (i.e., as described[...]

22 • Telescope Basics TELESCOPE BASICS Once your telescope is fully assembled, you are ready for your first look. This section deals with some of the basics of telescope operation. The image orientation changes depending on how the eyepiece is inserted into the telescope. When using the star diagonal, the image is right-side-up, but reversed from[...]

Telescope Basics • 2 3 The Celestron CM-1100 focusing mechanism controls the primary mirror which is mounted on a ring which slides back and forth on the primary baffle tube. The focusing knob, which moves the primary mirror, is on the rear cell of the telescope just right of the star diagonal and eyepiece. Turn the focusing knob until the image [...]

24 • Telescope Basics Your Celestron CM-1100 can be used for both terrestrial and astronomical photography. Your Celestron CM-1100 has a fixed aperture and, as a result, a fixed f/ratio. To properly expose your subjects photographically you need to set your shutter speed accordingly. Most 35mm single lens reflex (SLR) cameras offer through-the-le[...]

Telescope Basics • 2 5 With the telescope fully assembled and all the accessories attached, you are ready for your first look. Your first look should be done in the daytime when it is easier to locate the locking clutches. This will help to familiarize you with your telescope, thus making it easier to use at night. Daytime Observing As mentioned [...]

26 • Telescope Basics Nighttime Observing Looking at objects in the sky is quite different than looking at objects on Earth. For one, many objects seen in the daytime are easy to see with the naked eye and can be located in the telescope by using landmarks. In the night sky many objects are not visible to the naked eye. To make things easier, you[...]

Telescope Basics • 2 7 You can change the power of your Celestron CM-1100 telescope just by changing the eyepiece (ocular). To determine the magnification of your Celestron CM-1100, simply divide the focal length of the telescope by the focal length of the eyepiece used. In equation format, the formula looks like this: Focal Length of Telescope ([...]

28 • Astronomy Basics ASTRONOMY BASICS The following section deals with observational astronomy in general. It in- cludes information on the night sky, polar alignment, and using your telescope for astronomical observing. In order to help find objects in the sky, astronomers use a celestial coordinate system which is similar to our geographical c[...]

Astronomy Basics • 29 The daily motion of the Sun across the sky is familiar to even the most casual observer. This daily trek is not the Sun moving as early astronomers thought, but the result of the Earth ’ s rotation. The Earth ’ s rotation also causes the stars to do the same, scribing out a large circle as the Earth completes one rotatio[...]

30 • Astronomy Basics In order for the telescope to track the stars, you must meet two criteria. First, you need a drive motor that moves at the same rate as the stars. The Celestron CM-1100 comes standard with a built-in drive motor designed specifically for this purpose. The second thing you need is to set the telescope ’ s axis of rotation s[...]

Astronomy Basics • 31 In each hemisphere, there is a point in the sky around which all the other stars appear to rotate. These points are called the celestial poles and are named for the hemisphere in which they reside. For example, in the northern hemisphere all stars move around the north celestial pole. When the telescope ’ s polar axis is p[...]

32 • Astronomy Basics Latitude Scales The easiest way to polar align a telescope is with a latitude scale. Unlike other methods that require you to find the celestial pole by identifying certain stars near it, this method works off of a known constant to determine how high the polar axis should be pointed. The Celestron CM-1100 mount can be adjus[...]

Astronomy Basics • 33 Pointing at Polaris This method utilizes Polaris as a guidepost to the celestial pole. Since Polaris is less than a degree from the celestial pole, you can simply point the polar axis of your telescope at Polaris. Although this is by no means perfect alignment, it does get you within one degree. Unlike the previous method, t[...]

34 • Astronomy Basics The Polar Axis Finder The Polar Axis Finder is designed to minimize polar alignment time while maintaining maximum accuracy. The installation of this accessory is de- scribed in the section on “ Installing the Polar Axis Finder. ” Here ’ s how to use it: 1. Wait until it is dark enough to see Polaris with the unaided e[...]

Astronomy Basics • 35 Declination Drift This method of polar alignment allows you to get the most accurate alignment on the celestial pole and is required if you want to do long exposure deep-sky astrophotography through the telescope. The declination drift method requires that you monitor the drift of selected guide stars. The drift of each guid[...]

36 • Astronomy Basics Before you can use the setting circles to find objects in the sky, you need to align both the R.A. and DEC setting circles. In order to align the setting circle, you need to know the names of a few of the brightest stars in the sky. If you don ’ t, they can be learned by using the Celestron Sky Maps (#93722) or consulting [...]

Using the Drive • 37 Figure 5-1 The CI-700 electronic console. Powering Up the Drive USING THE DRIVE The drive system uses a 5.625 diameter bronze gear with 180 teeth for incred- ibly accurate tracking. One of the most unique features of the drive is the Periodic Error Correction (PEC) function. This feature allows the drive system to “ learn ?[...]

38 • Using the Drive This function allows you to select the speed at which the motor moves when corrections are made via the hand controller. Once the drive is activated, the default setting is .3 times sidereal rate. Press the Speed button to change the guiding rate. The selections are .3x, .5x, 8x, and 16x sidereal rate. For guiding, use either[...]

Using the Drive • 39 RATE The BC (Backlash Correction) function allows you to eliminate the backlash in the DEC motor when changing directions (i.e., from north to south or vice versa). Here ’ s how it works. Each time you change the direction of the telescope in declination, the motor speeds up momentarily to take up any slack. The Tracking Ra[...]

40 • Using the Drive 12 V DC 5. Press the “ PEC ” button once to activate the mode. The LED will flash once a second for 5 seconds indicating you have five seconds to get back to the eyepiece and begin guiding before it begins recording. The .3x guiding rate is best for this function. N O T E : The star should stay centered on the cross hairs[...]

Using the Drive • 41 The Hand Controller When using your Celestron CM-1100 in the southern hemisphere, there is a need to reverse the motors. Changing from northern hemisphere to southern hemisphere requires changing the polarity of the drive motor by changing the settings of the dip switches on the electronics board. To do this: 1. Remove the co[...]

42 • Using the Drive R.A./DEC Reverse As mentioned previously, the direction a particular button moves the mount varies depending on the telescope ’ s orientation (i.e., whether it ’ s on the east or west side of the mount). This can create confusion when guiding if you change the telescope ’ s orientation during a given photographic sessio[...]

Celestial Observing • 43 CELESTIAL OBSERVING With your telescope set up, you are ready to use it for observing. This section covers visual observing of both solar system and deep-sky objects. In the night sky, the Moon is a prime target for your first look because it is extremely bright and easy to find. Often, it is a temptation to look at the M[...]

44 • Celestial Observing Although overlooked by many amateur astronomers, solar observation is both rewarding and fun. However, because the Sun is so bright, special precautions must be taken when observing our star so as not to damage your eyes or your telescope. WARNING: Never project an image of the Sun through the telescope. Because of the fo[...]

Celestial Observing • 45 Deep-sky objects are simply those objects outside the boundaries of our solar system. They include star clusters, planetary nebulae, diffuse nebulae, double stars, and other galaxies outside our own Milky Way. The Celestron Sky Maps (#93722) can help you locate the brightest deep-sky objects. You can use your setting circ[...]

46 • Celestial Observing Star Hopping Another way to find deep-sky objects is by star hopping. Star hopping is done by using bright stars to “ guide ” you to an object. Here are the directions for two popular objects. The Andromeda Galaxy, M31, is an easy target. To find M31: 1. Locate the constellation of Pegasus, a large square visible in t[...]

Celestial Observing • 47 Star hopping may take some getting used to since you can see more stars through the finder than you can see with the naked eye. And, some objects are not visible in the finder. One such object is M57, the famed Ring Nebula. Here ’ s how to find it: 1. Find the constellation of Lyra, a small parallelogram visible in the [...]

48 • Celestial Observing Viewing conditions affect what you can see through your CM-1100 telescope during an observing session. Conditions include transparency, sky illumina- tion, and seeing. Understanding viewing conditions and the effect they have on observing will help you get the most out of your CM-1100 telescope. Transparency Transparency [...]

Celestial Observing • 49 Type 2 seeing conditions do move as quickly as Type 1, though the image is quite blurry. Fine detail is lost and the contrast is low for extended objects. Stars are spread out and not sharp. The source of Type 2 seeing is the lower atmosphere, most likely heat waves from the ground or buildings. To avoid the problems asso[...]

50 • Celestial Photography CELESTIAL PHOTOGRAPHY After looking at the night sky for awhile you may want to try photographing it. Several forms of celestial photography are possible with your Celestron CM- 1100 telescope. The most common forms of celestial photography, in order of difficulty are; short exposure prime focus, piggyback, eyepiece pro[...]

Celestial Photography • 5 1 Short exposure prime focus photography is the best way to begin recording celestial objects. It is done with the camera attached to the telescope without an eyepiece or camera lens in place. To attach your camera you need the Celestron T-Adapter (#93633-A) and a T-Ring for your specific camera (i.e., Minolta, Nikon, Pe[...]

52 • Celestial Photography The exposure times listed here should be used as a starting point. Always make exposures that are longer and shorter than the recommended time. Also, try bracketing your exposures, taking a few photos at each shutter speed. This will ensure that you will get a good photo. Keep accurate records of your exposures. This in[...]

Celestial Photography • 5 3 The easiest way to enter the realm of deep-sky, long exposure astrophotogra- phy is via the piggyback method. Piggyback photography is done with a camera and its normal lens riding on top of the telescope. Through piggyback photography you can capture entire constellations and record large scale nebulae that are too bi[...]

54 • Celestial Photography The exposure time depends on the film being used. However, five minutes is usually a good starting point. With slower films, like 100 ISO, you can expose as long as 45 minutes. With faster films, like 1600 ISO, you really shouldn ’ t expose more than 5 to 10 minutes. When getting started, use fast films to record as m[...]

Celestial Photography • 5 5 This form of celestial photography is designed for objects with small angular sizes, primarily the Moon and planets. Planets, although physically quite large, appear small in angular size because of their great distances. Moderate to high magnification is, therefore, required to make the image large enough to see any d[...]

56 • Celestial Photography The following table lists exposures for eyepiece projection with a 10mm eyepiece. All exposure times are listed in seconds or fractions of a second. The exposure times listed here should be used as a starting point. Always make exposures that are longer and shorter than the recommended time. Also, try bracketing your ex[...]

Celestial Photography • 5 7 This is the last form of celestial photography to be attempted after others have been mastered. It is intended primarily for deep-sky objects, that is objects outside our solar system which includes star clusters, nebulae, and galaxies. While it may seem that high magnification is required for these objects, just the o[...]

58 • Celestial Photography When getting started, use fast films to record as much detail in the shortest possible time. Here are proven recommendations: • Ektar 1000 (color print) • Konica 3200 (color print) • Fujichrome 1600D (color slide) • 3M 1000 (color slide) • T-Max 3200 (black and white print) • T-Max 400 (black and white print[...]

Celestial Photography • 5 9 Fastar Lens Assembly Option – Using your CM-1400 telescope at f/2.1 with optional PixCel CCD Camera Only the CM-1400 is equipped with a removable secondary mirror that allows you to convert your f/11 telescope into an f/2.1 imaging system capable of exposure times 25 times shorter than those needed with a f/11 system[...]

60 • Celestial Photography The F/# stands for the ratio between the focal length and the diameter of the light gathering element. A C14 optical tube has a focal length of 154 inches and a diameter of 14 inches. This makes the system an f/11, (focal length divided by diameter). When the secondary is removed and the CCD is placed at the Fastar posi[...]

Celestial Photography • 6 1 When imaging some objects like planetary nebula (for example M57, the Ring Nebula) and small galaxies (M104, the Sombrero Galaxy), larger image scale is needed to resolve finer detail. These objects are better shot at f/7 or even f/ 11. Medium size to small galaxies -- f/7 imaging gives you finer resolution then at f/2[...]

With the PixCel CCD camera and optional Color Filter Wheel, it is easy to take tri-color images of planets also. When imaging the planets, very short expo[...]

Telescope Maintenance • 6 3 TELESCOPE MAINTENANCE While your CM-1100 telescope requires little maintenance, there are a few things to remember that will ensure your telescope performs at its best. Occasionally, dust and/or moisture may build up on the corrector plate of your telescope. Special care should be taken when cleaning any instrument so [...]

64 • Telescope Maintenance spheric distortion. Turn your telescope drive on so that you won ’ t have to manually track the star. Or, if your are not using the clock drive, use Polaris. Its position relative to the celestial pole means that it moves very little thus eliminating the need to manually track it. Before you begin the collimation proc[...]

Telescope Maintenance • 6 5 6 Once the star image is in the center of the field of view, check to see if the rings are concentric. If the central obstruction is still skewed in the same direction, then continue turning the screw(s) in the same direction. If you find that the ring pattern is skewed in a different direction, than simply repeat step[...]
