For our high-quality
telescopes, we can also offer you the matching mounts. With the models
GM3000HPS and GM4000HPS 10Micron has created two precise and robust GoTo
mounts ideal with our telescopes.
The GM HPS mounts have absolute
encoders on both axes. The mounts never lose their orientation even if
the axes are adjusted manually.
DRIVE MECHANICS
Self-locking, high-precision worm-wheel-drives
with classic friction clutches
Internal wiring no external
mount cables
High torque Servo DC motors eliminate
imbalance motor stall
Proprietary motor-electronics
for easy servicing
DRIVE ELECTRONICS
Absolute on-axis encoders in RA
& Dec, featuring more than 10 million increments (interpolated), fully
encapsulated and calibrated
Up to 0.5 RMS tracking accuracy
- for long duration unguided imaging
Closed loop (encoder controlled)
satellite tracking
speed - up to 20°/s
Extremely low power consumption
and miniature format (20 x 15 x 8cm) electronics
After an observing session, the
entire electronics box (motor electronics with Linux computer) and HC can
be easily detached and protected from premature aging and moisture damage
Service friendly design - electronics
box and HC can be easily exchanged for service, without returning the precisely
adjusted HPS mount
FIRMWARE
Automatic refraction and flexure
correction functions implemented the only way for perfect unguided tracking
during long exposures
Intuitively operated V2 software
and QCI motor control system, integrated into an onboard Linux computer
intelligence built-in
No external PC or laptop mandatory
in the field all functions in the onboard computer can be accessed via
stand-alone hand control unit (HC)
Precise multistar pointing models,
entering satellite and comet trajectories, programming individual observing
sessions and much more
Well documented firmware and drivers,
working autonomously w/o additional planetarium software, without
need for external RS-232 converters
/ USB ports
Excellent documentation in English
and German
Electronic balance - requiring
one time balancing only
Ultra stable pointing models for
safe East/West load reversal no change of pointing model necessary when
changing accessories
Precise polar alignment software
aided and accomplished within minutes
Fully remote controlled via your
observatory PC with 10/100 LAN included, perfectly prepared for your future
Internet observatory
Remote diagnostics assist option

GM3000HPS observatory mount
|
 The
equatorial mount GM 3000 HPS is the ideal mount for our 16 and 18 inch
RC telescopes and astrographs.
The mount reaches a satellite
tracking and positioning speed of 12 deg/sec. with an average positioning
accuracy <20 "and a tracking accuracy of about 1"/15 min (peak to peak).
The mount is also equipped with high-precision absolute encoders on both
axes, which opens up completely new possibilities. It never loses orientation,
even if you adjust the axes manually. Maximum load: 100 kg (220 lbs) pure
instrument weight, optimum load capacity 80 kg instrument weight.

GM4000HPS observatory mount
|
 The
equatorial mount GM 4000 HPS is the ideal mount for our 18 inch and 20 inch telescopes as well as conditionally for RC24.
The GM 4000 HPS is one of the most
viable mounts produced in series.
The mount reaches a satellite
tracking and positioning speed of 10 deg/sec. with an average positioning
accuracy <20 "and a tracking accuracy of about 1"/15 min (peak to peak).
The mount also has highly accurate absolute encoders on both axes, which
opens up completely new possibilities. It never loses orientation, even
if you adjust the axes manually. Maximum load: 150 kg (330 lbs) pure instrument
weight, the optimum load is 130 kg.
