It is ideal for remotized observation sites, and its loading capacity allows for mounting instruments like 200 mm diameter refractors, 300 mm diameter Newton reflectors, 450 mm diameter Cassegrains and so on. Movements are driven by two\u00a0 servo brushless motors, with timing belt reduction having zerobacklash. Both axes feature a classic worm \u2013 wormwheel pairing. The wormwheels are made of bronze (B14), with a diameter of 244 mm and 315 teeth in right ascension, and a diameter of 192 mm and 250 teeth in declination. The worms are made of alloy tempered steel with a diameter of 32 mm and 24 mm respectively. The axes themselves are made of alloy steel, with a diameter of 80 mm (right ascension) and 60 mm (declination), for the maximum rigidity.<br \/>\n<strong>The electronics<\/strong> is housed in an independent control box, easily removable. The connections of the mount and keypad secutiry lock screws. Only one cable runs from the control box to the mount. The axes feature an hole allowing for the passage of instrumentation cables. This effectively solves the problem of entangling cables and damaging instruments, especially for remote observatories. The mount is powered with low voltage, requiring a maximum power of about 100W. This makes possible using the mount even in locations with limited power available. The GM3000HPS can be controlled completely using the included keypad, without requiring any external PC.<\/p>\n<div class=\"readfulltxt\">\n<p><strong>The keypad<\/strong> is built in order to maintain the maximum readability in all lighting conditions. Both the display and the ergonomic keys, allowing for the use of gloves, feature a red backlight. An heater keeps the display warm for usage below freezing temperatures. The mount can be controlled using the most common software packages by connecting it to a PC with the RS-232 serial port or the Ethernet connection, via the 10micron ASCOM driver or the Meade compatible command protocol. Furthermore, a dedicated software (also included with the mount) can be used to create a \u201cvirtual keypad\u201d replicating exactly the functions of the physical keypad. The RS-232 port can also be used to control an external dome. This flexibility makes the GM3000HPS an ideal mount for observatories and remotized observing sites. The object database contains many star catalogs and deep-sky objects up to the 16th magnitude. Solar system objects can be tracked so that their motion is compensated with respect to the stars. You may load orbital elements of comets, asteroids and artificial satellites into the mount, so that these objects can be tracked directly.<\/p>\n<p>Pointing is made accurate through the usage of a model containing up to 100 stars, which allows for the correction of the classical polar alignment and conic errors, and also of the most important flexure terms of the optical tube. In this way it is possible to obtain pointing accuracies of the order of 15 arcseconds RMS. The same model can be used in order to obtain the maximum tracking accuracy, compensating also for the atmospheric refraction (depending on the local atmospheric pressure and temperature).<br \/>\nA series of auxiliary functions is provided to help the user for quick aligning the mount to the celestial pole. You may also save and recover the alignment data of different observing sessions. This function is very useful if you have many instruments in different setups, each one requiring different flexure corrections. Tracking through the meridian, a typical problem with german mounts, is solved allowing for tracking for up to 30\u00b0 past the meridian (configurable), in both directions. In this way any object can be tracked for at least four hours.<br \/>\nThe <strong>tracking accuracy<\/strong> makes autoguiding not necessary for many uses.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-4496\" src=\"https:\/\/www.ganymedes.nl\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/04\/schema.png\" alt=\"\" width=\"698\" height=\"306\" \/><br \/>\nThe absolute encoders on both axes allows to obtain a typical tracking error below 1 arcsecond. It is possible to autoguide anyway, using the ST4-compatible port or through the serial\/Ethernet connection, with a guide rate configurable from 0.1x to 1x. The guide rate can be automatically corrected for the declination of the target, so that there is no need of recalibrating the autoguide when observing at different declinations. The mount has also dedicated function for easy use in the observatory. A dedicated connector on the control box panel is used for remotized switching on and off. The instrument can be electronically balanced, without disengaging the worm from the wormwheel. The mount can be parked in different user-defined positions. The serial RS-232 port can be used to control directly an external dome, avoiding the need of using a dedicated external PC. Once configured with your instrument parameters, the firmware is able to make all the calculations required for positioning the dome slit in front of your optical tube, for almost all instrument configurations.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Levering Omvat:<\/strong><\/p>\n<p><strong>GM 3000 HPS<\/strong> Mount including:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>GM 3000 Mount with built-in absolute encoders<\/li>\n<li>control box with onboard-intelligence (Linux-processor),V. 2<\/li>\n<li>HPS version firmware, stand alone system ( no PC required ),<\/li>\n<li>professional handcontrol unit with graphic display and temperature control\u00a0\u2013 10M5030<\/li>\n<li>cables<\/li>\n<li>counterweight shaft<\/li>\n<li>WiFi option included.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p><strong>Technische specificaties:<\/strong><\/p>\n<table class=\"table-responsive\">\n<tbody>\n<tr>\n<td><strong>Type<\/strong><\/td>\n<td>German Equatorial Mount<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td><strong>Weight (mount)<\/strong><\/td>\n<td>65\u00a0kg \u2013 143\u00a0lbs without accessories<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td><strong>Instrument payload capacity<\/strong><\/td>\n<td>100\u00a0kg \u2013 220\u00a0lbs<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td><strong>Latitude range<\/strong><\/td>\n<td>20\u00b0 \u2013 70\u00b0<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td><strong>Azimuth fine adjustment range<\/strong><\/td>\n<td>+\/\u2212 10\u00b0<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td><strong>Counterweight shaft<\/strong><\/td>\n<td>50\u00a0mm diameter, stainless steel, weight 8\u00a0kg \u2013 18\u00a0lbs<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td><strong>Axes<\/strong><\/td>\n<td>R.A. 80\u00a0mm diameter, alloy steel<br \/>\nDec. 50\u00a0mm diameter, alloy steel<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td><strong>Bearings<\/strong><\/td>\n<td>Pre-loaded tapered roller bearings<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td><strong>Worm wheels<\/strong><\/td>\n<td>R.A. 315 teeth, 244\u00a0mm diameter, B14 bronze<br \/>\nDec. 250 teeth, 192\u00a0mm diameter, B14 bronze<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td><strong>Worms screw<\/strong><\/td>\n<td>Diameter 32\u00a0mm (r.a.) and 24\u00a0mm (dec.), tempered alloy steel, grinded and lapped<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td><strong>Transmission system<\/strong><\/td>\n<td>Backlash-free system with timing belt and automatic backlash recovery<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td><strong>Motors<\/strong><\/td>\n<td>2 axes servo brushless<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td><strong>Power supply<\/strong><\/td>\n<td>24 V DC<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td><strong>Power consumption<\/strong><\/td>\n<td>~ 1 A while tracking<br \/>\n~ 3 A at maximum speed<br \/>\n~ 5 A peak<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td><strong>Go-to-speed<\/strong><\/td>\n<td>Adjustable from 2\u00b0\/s to 12\u00b0\/s (9\u00b0\/s in r.a.)<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td><strong>Pointing accuracy<\/strong><\/td>\n<td>&lt; 20\u201d with internal multiple-stars software mapping<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td><strong>Average tracking accuracy<\/strong><\/td>\n<td>&lt; +\/\u2212 1&#8243; typical for 15 minutes (&lt; 0.7&#8243; RMS) with multiple-stars software mapping and compensation of flexure and polar alignment errors<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td><strong>Security stop<\/strong><\/td>\n<td>+\/\u2212 30\u00b0 past meridian in r.a.
