LX200-ACF

The “Advanced” in Advanced Coma-Free A traditional Ritchey-Chrétien (RC) is a type of reflector that delivers

a coma-free, flat field of view via hyperbolic primary and secondary

mirrors. RC telescopes (from a variety of manufacturers) are found

in most of the world’s top observatories and NASA’s Hubble Space

Telescope. Because the mirrors in these telescopes have always been

very expensive to make, few amateur astronomers could enjoy them.

Fortunately, Meade engineers developed a radical new Advanced

Coma-Free design by combining a hyperbolic secondary mirror with a

corrector-lens-and-spherical-primary-mirror combination that performs

as one hyperbolic element. This ACF design produces a coma-free,

flat field of view that rivals traditional RC telescopes at a fraction of

the cost. The design even eliminates diffraction spikes and improves

astigmatism, both of which are inherent in the traditional RC design.

When reviewing Meade’s LX400-ACF Advanced Coma-Free, Sky and

Telescope magazine said, “[It] does indeed perform like a [Ritchey-

Chrétien]. The difference between the off-axis images (compared to a

Schmidt-Cassegrain) was dramatic to say the least.”

LX600 SERIES FEATURESLX600 SERIES FEATURES

The LX600 is a simple to operate, portable package that makes taking great astrophotos as easy as focusing your camera and opening the shutter. The collection of features and technology integrated into the LX600 is

unavailable from any other manufacturer and cannot be duplicated by just attaching a set of add-ons toanother scope.

bb StarLock The LX600 integrates a unique star tracking and object fi nding system into the telescope mount. This integration allows the telescope to center your target perfectly in the fi eld of view. Once centered, the star

tracking system communicates directly with the motor drives to automatically insure that your scope stays locked onto its target with arcsecond precision. The automated optical tracking system delivers long-exposure guiding with

pinpoint stars on astroimages — all without the need of an external computer.

cc New f/8 Advanced Coma-Free™ Optical System Meade has completely redesigned the OTAs with a new mirror mounting and focusing system to achieve zero image-shift and a two-speed microfocuser. The scope features faster f/8 ACF™ optics giving you pinpoint stars all the way across the fi eld of view. The OTAs are available in 10, 12,

14 and 16 inch apertures.

dd Internal Crayford-style 7:1 Focuser The completely redesigned mirror mounting system achieves zero-image shift and integrates a two-speed microfocuser for quick and easy adjustments.

ee Solid Fork Mount With Heavy Duty 5.75" Gears. Large, high-quality worm-gear drives in both axes provide smooth movements with low periodic error that are critical for long exposure astrophotography, that provides the freedom to go horizon to horizon without any meridian fl ip,

unlike German Equatorial Mounts.

ff Alt/Az Mode In alt/az mode, the LX600 also makes for the best visual and short exposure experience possible. StarLock will put every target dead center in the eyepiece and track

with arcsecond accuracy so you can concentrate on the beautiful, wide fi elds of pinpoint stars created by the superb f/8 ACF optical system.

gg Autostar II Controller. Puts over 145,000 objects at your fi ngertips with the fastest GoTo performance available (8° per second - 10", 12" and 14" aperatures).

Or you can control the system from an external computer.

hh Giant Field Tripod With 3" diameter chromed steel legs and cast aluminum tripod head — adjustable from 34" to 54" — the Giant Field Tripod provides a

research-grade foundation for the LX600.

1@1@ All New X-Wedge™ Precision CNC-machined from ultra-ridged, aircraft-grade aluminum with smooth, accurate altitude and azimuth adjustments. Thirty percent

more stable than competing equatorial wedges, the X-Wedge is the essential accessory for long exposure astroimaging.

1#1# Portability Need a telescope system that can be easily broken down and moved to a dark-sky site? Always wanted a bigger telescope, but were worried about the weight?

With the NEW LX600 Split Fork design, you can have both. The OTA can be quickly separated from the mount, reducing the total weight that must be lifted at one time

by 35 lb. This allows for easy setup and transportation even with a 12" or 14" OTA.

LX600 FEATURES EXCLUSIVE TO LX600 FEATURES EXCLUSIVE TO THE 16 INCH MODELTHE 16 INCH MODEL

Weighing in at Observatory-class, the 16 inch LX600 boasts features not available with the standard LX600 line:

ii Filtered Cooling Fan To keep your telescope in thermal equilibrium the optical tube is equipped with a cooling fan as well as a fi ltered exhaust vent.

jj Professional-Grade Fork Mount With 11" Gears. The massive 16" LX600 fork system, cast in one continuous piece from one declination housing to the other,

includes a total of four 80mm roller bearings in declination (two in each housing) and two roller bearings in right ascension (one each of 100mm and 150mm bearings in the RA housing). Usage of these precision roller bearings in the telescope's design permits the addition of substantial auxiliary equipment

without the risk of strain on the mount. Large DC-servo motor-driven 11" worm gears on both axes yield smooth, precision tracking

and slewing required of a professional telescope.

1)1) MAX Wedge (optional) The MAX Wedge was designed using advanced CAD analysis to assure both ease of adjustment and

rock solid stability using modern light weight alloys. Attractively fi nished, all standard fi eld installation and adjustments on the

MAX Wedge can be performed with the included tools or using large, easily accessible ergonomic handles and knobs.

1!1! MAX Tripod The MAX Tripod can be transported or permanently installed. It provides a wide stance to assure that it can safely

carry the 16" LX600’s payload in all orientations, but still collapses down to a size that is easy to handle. It will even fi t

in a single vehicle with the rest of your gear. The hinged feet are fi tted with built-in anti-vibration pads for the

most stable viewing possible.

Building on the foundation of the technologically revolutionary LX800, Meade engineers have taken the next step in astrophotographic evolution. We’ve kept the same innovative concepts like Starlock™ full-time automatic guiding and high-precision pointing, f/8 ACF OTAs with internal Crayford-style two-speed focuser and a portable precision German equatorial mount, but re-engineered it to deliver more performance with less user effort.

Here is a brief list of a few of the changes and new features made to create the new LX850:

NEW polished bronze worms in both RA and DEC drives that deliver smooth motion with low periodic error

NEW larger roller bearings in both RA and DEC axes to better handle large loads

NEW roller bearings in the RA and DEC clutch assemblies to allow freer motion with the clutches loosened for easier balancing

NEW one-piece 1-inch thick saddle plate with improved dove tail clamps, thicker OTA dovetail rail and radius blocks to reduce flexure between the OTA and mount

NEW alterative Starlock mounting position on ACF OTAs for virtually no flexure between StarLock and the primary optics

NEW StarLock software improvements to guide star selection, tracking/guiding accuracy, Ultra High Precision Pointing, and Drift Alignment

NEW StarLock automatic guide rate calibration which analyzes the sky conditions and sets the best possible guide rates for both RA and DEC

What's more is that all of this technology and engineering delivers a portable astro-imaging system that can be set up, aligned and imaging in less than 30 minutes.

LX850LX850 SERIES FEATURESMeade Instruments’ new LX850 series of imaging/visual telescopes uses exciting

advanced technologies in optics, electronics and mechanics to bring you a superior system for imaging and visual observations. Here are some of the exciting features of the LX850 line.

b Fast f/8 Advanced Coma-Free (ACF) optical systems on the 10, 12

and 14 inch OTAs. These optics produce wider, flatter fields with no coma for pinpoint stars out to the edge of larger imaging sensors or extreme wide angle eyepieces.

OR:130mm 3-element, air-spaced apochromatic f/7 refractor with

3 inch Crayford-style 10:1 focuser. Beautifully machined and finished with case. Optional 3 inch field flattener available.

c StarLock full-time automatic integrated guider provides computer-assisted drift alignment for refining polar alignment, finds and centers targets and then automatically locks onto a field star as

faint as 11th magnitude for guiding. No separate computer, no guide star selection, no guide scope focus. Just set up your

camera and image.

d Internal Crayford-style primary mirror focusing system with a dual speed 7:1 focus control.

Precise focus is a snap.

e German Equatorial Mount made from machined aluminum and stainless steel with large

bearing surfaces and roller bearings in both axes for an extremely solid and stable platform.

f Precision machined 5.8 inch main gears with 225 teeth in both R.A. and DEC. with .68" polished bronze worms for very

accurate movements and tracking.

g 1.75 inch diameter threaded stainless steel counterweight shaft with 26 pound threaded stainless steel counterweights for easy and safe

adjustments to telescope balance.

h Sophisticated built-in computer for the most accurate control of the StarLock and other telescope systems.

i AutoStar II computer controller with over 144,000 object database to take you to almost any object imaginable at the push of the GoTo button.

AutoStar II allows the user to setup and operate the LX850 in just the way you want.

j Precise altitude and azimuth controls

for mount polar alignment.

1) Ultra-stable adjustable height tripod. Three inch diameter legs fold up for easy transport.

1! Internal cabling to prevent snags and tangles.
