The slewing speed is automatically determined by the time the user decides to slew between those points.Similarly, in Time Lapse mode the user can choose a starting and finishing point, and a slewing time up to 10 hours between those points. This feature allows the user to capture a series of still images (up to 65,535) during the slew, and using suitable image processing software, the images can be merged to create time lapse video. MOTORISED MOUNT FOR DAYTIME OBSERVATIONSIn its simplest application, the mount can be used as a stable motorised platform to automatically pan your favourite compatible equipment to any desired position.
