Pinpoint your Celestron mount with ease! Simply strap the Celestron SkySync to your tripod, connect it to your AUX or Hand Controller port, and let the 16-Channel GPS do the rest. Read on to see how SkySync can simplify up your setup!
To allow your Go-To telescope precisely pinpoint the incredible wonders of our
universe, accurate date, time, and location information is a crucial step of
your setup process. With the Celestron SkySync for Celestron Telescopes
connected to your mount
you can now provide this info with no manual input! Say
good-bye to bright smartphone apps or extra tools; once connected and enabled
in your hand controller, the Celestron SkySync will determine your current
location and time vis GPS and set it accordingly. This handy add-on can be
used with almost any modern non-GPS equipped Celestron mount*, and attaches
neatly to your tripod with the included mounting straps for a solution that
stays out of your way in use or in transit. Ensure your star model always has
a stellar starting point, with this 16-channel module mount upgrade!

An Excellent Quality of Life Improvement
Add the Celestron SkySync to your non-GPS equipped Celestron mount for a powerful quality of life enhancement of your setup experience, making precise site data setting as simple as enabling a single menu setting!
A Simpler and More Precise Setup
While there are many
tools to help lock in your location, date, and time, experience an even
simpler solution with Celestron SkySync! Simply engage the GPS from your
hand controller menu and the precise date, time, longitude, and latitude are
set automatically so long as the 16-channel module can talk to one of the
many compatible GPS satellites. This gives you wide coverage to move your
Celestron mount around without needing to worry about pulling up an app or
separate tool to precisely dial in your site data!
Easy to Connect
Connecting the Celestron SkySync to
your Celestron mount is easy! Using one of the included straps (13" nylon
strap for CGE Pro mounts, 10" for all others), loop around a tripod leg and
the two slots on the back of the SkySync housing. Cinch the unit in place,
and then connect the built-in cable to either the AUX port of your Celestron
mount or the Hand Controller port if your mount does not have a
separate AUX port (connecting the hand controller itself to the port on the
SkySync housing). Then power on the mount, and turn the GPS on from the "GPS
ON/OFF" entry in the hand controller's utility menu. Your hand controller
will display "GPS Linking", and once this message clears you can now use
your Celestron mount and start a star alignment!
