Vixen DEC Motor Module for AP Mount System
Upgrade your Vixen AP Mount System with the DEC Motor Module, designed to provide smooth, electric-powered motion along the declination (DEC) axis when used with the STAR BOOK ONE controller.
The standard AP mount system includes manual slow-motion controls for both Right Ascension (R.A.) and Declination axes. By adding this DEC motor module to an AP-SM mount (which already includes the R.A. motor), you transform your setup into a fully motorized, dual-axis tracking system—ideal for both visual observation and astrophotography.
Key Features:
-
Motorized Declination Movement: Enables precise, electric control of the DEC axis for improved tracking and slewing.
-
Smooth Operation: Built-in high-quality bearings ensure stable and fluid movement.
-
Essential for Dual-Axis Drive: Completes the upgrade to a fully motorized AP mount system.
-
Power Compatibility: Operates using power supplied from the battery compartment located on the mount’s declination body.
This compact and lightweight module is the final step in transforming your AP system into a powerful, versatile tracking platform. Whether you're observing deep-sky objects or capturing long-exposure astrophotography, the Vixen DEC Motor Module delivers precision and performance.
