Astro-Fix NMS (Non Magnetic Sensor)
for Dobsonian, Altaz and Equatorial mounted telescopes
The New Astro-Fix NMS uses the very latest non-magnetic sensor technology and can be
used on Dobsonian, Altazimuth and Equatorial Telescopes for locating celestial objects.
Using the Astro-Fix NMS couldn't be simpler, just reference it to any convenient
star which takes just a minute. Now set your telescope to the azimuth of your
required target followed by the altitude of the target. You can quickly move from
target to target and find all those elusive Deepsky Objects..
Azimuth and altitude values can be fine tuned if necessary.

Accuracy (in general, the closer the reference, the greater the accuracy)
Dob mode:
Altitude - typically within 0.5 degrees
Azimuth - typically within 1.0 degree
EQ mode - typically within 1.5 degrees
For best results, choose a nearby reference and keep the telescope on level ground.

EQ Mode
Although primarily intended for Dobsonian
telescopes, the NMS has an EQ mode which
displays declination and altitude instead of
azimuth and altitude.
You set declination and altitude by moving your
declination and RA axes.
For greater accuracy you can reference
it to stars near your desired targets.
Your telescope should be polar aligned.
