Photo 9 

If the connection was successful then the red rectangle will turn green, and by smoothly 
moving the telescope you will see the corresponding crosshairs in the star field of the 
planetarium program. Further, to make the planetarium "understand" where the telescope is 
directed, it is necessary to make a telescope alignment on two stars. To do this, aim the 
telescope at a previously known, bright star. 

Right-click the same star on the planetarium screen, and click in the Telescope / Synchronize 
menu that appears. Do the same with another star in advance. If during the transfer of the 
telescope to another star it is found that the crosshairs on one or both axes are moving in the 
opposite direction, change the sign in the corresponding field of the number of steps / 
impulses of the encoders in position 6, 7 in photo 9 and perform the procedure of binding the 
telescope to two stars again. If everything went well, then smoothly moving the telescope 
tube you can start to make a fascinating tour through the infinite expanses of the universe.
