If you have a question concerning your LS-6 
telescope, call the Meade Instruments Customer 
Service Department at (800) 626-3233. Customer 
Service hours are 7:00 AM to 5:00 PM, Pacific Time, 
Monday through Friday. In the unlikely event that 
the LS-6 requires factory servicing or repairs, before 
returning the telescope to the factory, write or call 
the Meade Customer Service Department to provide 
an explanation of the problem, as well as your 
name, address and daytime telephone number. The 
great majority of servicing issues can be resolved 
by telephone, avoiding return of the telescope to 
the factory.

LS-6 Mini SD Card for Updates and
Image Storage
Your LS-6 telescope comes with a “Mini SD Card” slot 
located in the front edge of the fork arm. With a user 
supplied “Mini SD Card”, or a “Micro SD Card” in a Mini 
Card Adapter, you can update your telescope firmware 
or save images made with the ECLIPS CCD. 
Only use SD Cards bearing the official SD logo. Each 
card must be properly formatted, using a PC utility or 
AutoStar Suite, before use in the LS-6. The card must 
be formatted with the FAT32 File System.
Your LS-6 will not power-up with an SD Card inserted 
in its slot unless you are updating the firmware from the 
card. This includes an SD Card used to store images 
from the ECLIPS camera. To ensure the application 
software boots normally, remove the SD Card before 
switching on the LS-6 LightSwitch. If you observe that 
the LS-6 is taking a long time to power-up, please 
ensure the Mini SD Card slot is empty and cycle the 
LS-6 LightSwitch off and on.
