Adjustment and Use
The Digital Indicator has a
0.5" travel range. In order
to effectively use the indica-
tor, it is ideal to set the shaft
within the middle of its travel
range.
To do so: achieve a
rough focus with your tele-
scope. Slide the indicator
against the stop until the
shaft has moved approxi-
mately half way through its
travel. Use the small Allen
key and tighten the two set
screws on the side of the
Dovetail Channel that con-
tact the indicator Dovetail.
Turn the micrometer on
and zero it if necessary
Start critically focusing
the image. Take note of the
micrometer reading so you
may return to that position if
further adjustment does not
improve focus.
Details regarding the
use of the indicator can be
found on the instructions in-
cluded with the unit.
The optional RSC-2320
cable plus TVFocus software
(download available at
www.TeleVue.com) permits
remote viewing of the
indicator's reading.
