It is best to set up the telescope in twilight
or before sunset the first time you use
the ETX-LS. Take the telescope and tripod
outside. Set the telescope in a large open
area where you can see lots of sky.
Don’t
setup right next to a building or
a wall. Also try to stay away from
large metal objects like a car or
a metal fence.
Make sure the ground is
stable and is approximately level. It is best to
set up the scope away from bright nighttime
lighting. Bright lights will spoil your night
vision and impede your ability to see the sky.
Additionally, it will take the telescope longer
to align itself if there are too many bright
lights around.
