o

  Then turn the vertical or horizontal screw in the mirror mount to put the star back 

at the center. For example, if the cross is too high: 

 

 

 

 

1.  Put the star on the edge of 
the  screen  with  the  in-app 
joystick. 

2.  Use  the  hex  key  to  turn  the 
screw  (in  this  example  the 
vertical screw) 

3.  Put  back  the  star  at  the 
center  of  the  screen.  The 
cross will recenter itself 

 

o

  Repeat  the  procedure  until  the  cross  looks  centered.  You  might  have  to  do  it 

several times. 

o

  Move back the focus to the default position by aligning the visual cue with the top 

screw (Section 3 in the Quick Start Guide). 

o

  Move toward a target and enjoy. The image should look better now. 

 
 

11.  Charge/Discharge 

 

o

  The eVscope eQuinox can be used while charging. 

o

  It can take from 7 to 8 hours to fully charge it. 

o

  When the eVscope is charging, you will see a blue flashing LED that will go from 

six flashes to none. Flashes decrease as the battery gets more charged. 

o

  We strongly advise not to recharge your eVscope below 10°C. 

o

  When the battery is low, the performance of the eVscope can be compromised. 

You can see the battery charge level in the "User" tab of the app. A fully charged 
battery is all yellow, a fully discharged battery is black with a yellow border. 

o

  We advise to only use the USB-C charger provided by Unistellar. 

o

  You can also use an external battery to recharge your eVscope. 

o

  You can charge your smartphone with the eVscope. Plug it to the USB-A port, next 

to the USB-C port.
