Explore Scientific designed their iEXOS-100-2 PMC-Eight Equatorial Go-To Tracker System Mount to provide users with a precision platform built to support small-to-medium sized optical tubes and astrophotography and imaging rigs.
ES continues their commitment to user-friendly gear with the PMC-Eight motor drive system that uses micro-stepper motors and a direct-drive belt connection between the drive shaft and motor to ensure accurate and smooth tracking for extended periods with minimal vibration and zero backlash. The entire PMC-Eight software suite is offered as open-source code so users can tweak the system and share their preferences with a growing community of enthusiasts.
Keeping up with the latest technology, the common wired control system is augmented with Wi-Fi and Bluetooth for remote control from Windows or Android/iOS tablets running the ExploreStars app. It has a database of over 70,000 objects and an intuitive user interface controlled with the device's touchscreen. Multiple alignment procedures, slew and tracking rates, and customized guided tours enable it to be easily set up and get users observing quickly with minimal frustration. Like the coding for the motor drive system, the app is open source, so it can be customized and those modifications shared. A non-volatile memory and Real-Time clock preserve settings, including backlash correction and Periodic Error Correction (PEC), when the system is turned off and power is disconnected.
