* Refer to "CHOOSING AN EYEPIECE,
" page 14, and "TOO MUCH POWER," page 15, to
determine which optional eyepieces are best-suited to your applications and how to avoid
“overpowering” the telescope.
#140 2x Barlow Lens: An amplifying lens, the #140 2x Barlow doubles the power of all
eyepieces with which it is used. Insert the #140 into the telescope’s eyepiece-holder first,
followed by the diagonal prism and eyepiece.
#909 Accessory Port Module (APM): The #909 APM (Fig. 19) attaches to the rear cell of the
LX90 and connects by cable to the Aux port on the telescope's control panel. The APM includes
auxiliar
y connectors f
or plug-in of such accessor
ies as corded models of illuminated reticle
eyepieces, the #1206 Electric Focuser, or a CCD autoguider.
#505 Astr
oFinder™ Software and Cable Connector Kit:
With Meade AstroFinder loaded into
your PC, AutoStar-equipped telescopes, such as the LX90, may be remotely controlled from the
PC display. The #505 Connector Cable Set, permitting connection of the LX90, AutoStar, and
PC
, is included with each AstroFinder pac
kage
.
#928 45° Erect-Image Diagonal Prism: Primarily used for terrestrial viewing, this prism (Fig.
20) presents a correctly-oriented image at a comfortable 45° viewing angle.
Illuminated Reticle Eyepieces: Meade Illuminated Reticle Eyepieces (Fig. 21) are used for
precise polar alignment of your telescope. During long-exposure astrophotography, in
conjunction with the optional Meade Off-Axis Guider, they are used for through-the-telescope
monitor
ing of the object being photog
r
aphed while the camera’s shutter is open. Two optical
designs are available: Series 4000 Plössl 9mm or Modified Achromatic 12mm. Each model is
available in a wireless or corded configuration. The wireless models include a variable
brightness control with self-contained (user-provided) batteries. The corded models include
v
ariable brightness and blink rate functions and plug directly into the Accessory Port Module
(see above), with actuation from the hand controller.
