MODULE ELECTRONICS "NAVIGATOR-2" SENSOR
AND ENCODER OF TELESCOPE POSITION
NAVIGATOR-2 is the first pilot modulus
which is able of function independent
of PC but the modulus is able to co-operate with PC.
Documents for NAVIGATOR-2
in the hypertexet link offer connected view of
structural design modulus in the block diagram.
CONSTRUCTIONAL GROUNDWORK - documentation are free available
for amateur astronomers:

FUNCTION
OF THE MODULUS IMPLIES ALREADY HIS TITLE: NAVIGATOR-2
by the help of couple incremental
sensors DSC on axes Ra and Dec of telescope (or Alt - Az) sense position of
draw-tube
and indicate her to on map of the planetarium
on screen PC SW "SkyCharts" author
Patrick Chealley or/and on LED (LCD) in NAVIGATOR-2.
Electronically defined position of the astronomical telescope is accelerating
essentially for speeds orientation and guiding, it is
left more time on sighting.
From database (DB) in NAVIGATOR-2 or PC they are pumped full information about object, the watcher has data available quickly and promptly.
Further were fulfilled necessary mechanical adjustments of axes Ra and Dec on the mount.
THE DEVELOPMENT OF HW AND SW IN PILOT
MODULUS NAVIGATOR-2 he was initiated during spring 2002 and
continues to date.
LINEAR INCREMENTAL SENSORS EXTRACTED FROM
MICE
FOR PC
were made and practically checked-out in the same period.
Without a compromise in quality resulted a compensation for rotary inkremental
sensors (DSC),
which are unbearable expensive and that is why they are inaccessible.
Step by step were checked-out variety manners of sensoring the position and
placing DSC on assembly telescope, how it is
clear from photo documentation.
Author of concept and HW is
Jan Grecner
- master of SW package is Ludek Kejzlar.
