Attaching Nightscape to Telescope Before attaching Nightscape to your telescope, remember to first power it down and disconnect all cables. Nightscape has a 2" adapter with internal T-threads that allows it to be attached in two ways: Drawtube - Slide the 2" nosepiece adapter directly into your telescope's 2" focuser and secure using the thumb screws on the telescope. T-thread - Thread your T-Adapter (sold separately) onto the 2" nosepiece or directly into the camera housing (with the 2" nosepiece removed). Attach the T-Adapter securely to your telescope. As the distance from the top of the nosepiece to the imaging sensor is the same as the distance of a standard DSLR camera (55 mm), Celestron EdgeHD T-Adapters provide the correct spacing for attaching Nightscape to an EdgeHD telescope. Model #93644 (EdgeHD 8") and #93646 (EdgeHD 9.25", 11" and 14"). Guidescope (not Included) CPC DLX Edge HD (not Included) T-adapter (not Included) nightscape attached Figure 4 www.celestron.com
