- ADD GPS FOR THE MOST ACCURATE ALIGNMENT: Upgrade your Celestron computerized telescope with ultra-precise 16-channel GPS time, date, and location data.
- SAVE TIME ALIGNING YOUR SCOPE: Instead of entering the approximate time, date, and location into your hand control manually, SkySync obtains this information from orbiting global positioning satellites, saving you time in the field.
- GREAT FOR ASTROIMAGING: SkySync will improve your alignment—a difference you can see in your astroimages.
- WORKS WITH YOUR EXISTING TELESCOPE: Simply plug into your hand control or any available AUX port on your telescope mount. Work with all non-GPS Celestron computerized telescopes.
- MOUNTING STRAP INCLUDED: We’ve provided a handy Velcro strap to secure the SkySync GPS unit to one of your telescope’s tripod legs, safely out of the way.
Computerized telescopes rely on time, date, and location information to create an internal model of the night sky. Your telescope’s pointing and tracking ability is only as good as the information the telescope receives. For the best alignment possible, we created the SkySync GPS Accessory, which provides real-time 16-channel GPS data from orbiting satellites to your hand control.
Using this handy device couldn’t be simpler. Just plug it into the hand control itself or any available AUX port on your mount. Instead of going through the time-consuming process of manually entering time, date, and location information, SkySync supplies it automatically. In addition to the improved accuracy, you’ll appreciate the time savings each and every time you align your telescope.
SkySync blends in seamlessly with your existing telescope setup. A Velcro strap secures it to the tripod leg, where it is safely out of the way. The device is powered by the mount itself, so there’s no need for an extra battery. And since it relies on Global Positioning System (GPS) satellites, you can count on it to work in even the most remote dark sky observing sites.
Every serious visual observer or astroimager looking to upgrade his or her telescope setup will enjoy the convenience and user-friendly design of SkySync.
