The natural evolution of Pulsar is Pulsar2. From November 2009 Gemini Telescope Design is offering this new version that retains all the key features of its predecessor but adds more flexibility and ease of use.

 

What's new?

- Pulsar2 accepts servos (35vDC max) or steppers.

- Independent incremental encoders can be added.

- Connects to the PC by the USB port.

- Allows direct access from the internet (Ethernet connector).

- Has much more memory for databases (currently we have added IC and Pk).

- Steppers are driven in 2 speed dependent modes, ensuring silent and silky smooth tracking AND high goto speeds.

- The motor connector and the hand controller are compatible with Pulsar,

- It has a foolproof initializing menu to help setting DEC motor rotation and finding the reference star.

- Upgrading the firmware takes 20 seconds and all user settings in the menu are protected.

Available soon

During 2010 we will add a cone error correction routine and a polar alignment routine.
