Optional Accessories • SkyPortal WiFi Module • StarSense AutoAlign • SkySync GPS • Celestron Focus Motor • Autoguider for PEC training NOTE: Some Celestron mounts may not have enough AUX ports to accommodate these optional accessories. If you need additional AUX ports, please see item #93919 Aux Port Splitter on the Celestron.com website. Do not connect multiple AUX Splitters to each other, as resistance and power loss may result, which will impact the performance of the mount and the connected accessories. Installing the Software 1. On the Celestron PWI webpage, find and select the "Download CPWI Software HERE" hyperlink to begin downloading CPWI. 2. Open the Setup_CPWI.exe download file and follow the onscreen steps. 3. Run the application and proceed to install CPWI. Telescope Setup with an EQ Mount If you are using an equatorial mount, the mount's RA and Dec axes should be at the index marks or homed, depending on your mount, and roughly polar aligned prior to using the CPWI software. Once roughly polar aligned, you can begin aligning the telescope. Once the alignment is complete, you can use All-Star Polar Alignment (ASPA) to accurately polar align the mount. Later in this manual, you'll find detailed instructions on ASPA. Computerized EQ mount roughly polar aligned Pointing towards celestial pole Telescope Setup with an Alt/Az Mount The optical tube on your Alt/Az telescope should be roughly level to the ground pointing due north. NOTE: All users should point the telescope north, regardless of whether they are in the Northern or Southern Hemisphere.
