The Tele Vue Sky Tour encoder kit is designed for all current Televue mounts, including Telepod, Gibraltar, and Panoramic, but will also fit a variety of other mounts, including altitude-azimuth, German equatorial, fork mount, and equatorial table.

Just as your computer uses a sensor arrangement to know where the mouse is located, the SkyTour Encoder uses a sensor to understand what position in RA and Dec your telescope is located by use of an encoder placed on either axes - a form of electronic setting circles. This information is then fed back into the optional TeleVue SkyTour computer control and a whole new world opens up... one with an exclusive Lorenzin 2000+ database and an amazing amount of capabilities! Just remember, this is only the sensing unit which includes encoders, hardware, and wiring harness.
