Can the cables for the motor drive and temp. sensor be extended in length? I would like to move the controller to a table in my observatory, which would require a cable length of 8 meters.Is Answered? Yes (1 answer)
Answer rated: 0Yes, that is not a problem. You can simply purchase a standard Network Cable (minimum CAT 6) in e.g. 10 meter lengthAnswer by: Baader Web Team (Admin) on Jan 27, 2023 8:02:00 AMRated: 01/26/2023 1:35 AM Baader Zenith Prism Diagonal T-2/90 ° with 32mm Prism (T-2 part #14)
I have Baader Zenith Prism Diagonal T-2/90 ° with 32mm Prism (T-2 part #14) # 2456005K. I bought a 1.25" Baader ClickLock Eyepiece Clamp. I cannot attach it to this diagonal because the ClickLock and the diagonal are both female threads. How do I attach it?Is Answered? Yes (1 answer)
Answer rated: 0When you (or anyone else) removed the previous 1 1/4" eyepiece clamp mounted on top of the prism housing, most likely at that occasion the extension adapter from the female 36.4 ("Vixen") thread onto the male T-2 thread inadvertedly got unthreaded as well.
So either you would find that ring at the bottom of the eyepiece clamp that was attached onto the prism housing before, or someone else had removed a previous clamp and did not notice that this "thread-adapter" got removed as well.
You might contact your dealer - or buy that ring separately: https://www.baader-planetarium.com/en/baader-adapter-m36.4--t-2-(t-2-part-03).htmlAnswer by: Baader Web Team (Admin) on Jan 27, 2023 2:31:00 PMRated: 01/24/2023 8:58 PM Baader Hyperion Universal Zoom Mark IV, 8-24mm eyepiece (1¼" / 2")
Just wondering if this eyepiece will fit and focus to infinity on a Bushnell Space master 2 60mm spotting scope?Is Answered? Yes (1 answer)
Answer rated: 0Sorry, we don't know this spotting scope so we can't answer for certain. Focus to infinity should work with the included Spotting Scope Adapter from the Hyperion Zoom. You would have to check the threads of the Spotting Scope to see if the Hyperion Zoom MK IV would fit mechanically, either with the supplied or with additional adapters.Answer by: Baader Web Team (Admin) on Jan 25, 2023 7:07:00 AMRated: 01/22/2023 8:56 AM Bundle: Hyperion Universal Zoom Mark IV with Hyperion-Barlow 2.25x (8-24mm / 3.6-10.7mm)
Can I use Hyperion-Barlow 2.25x with Hyperion 68⁰ 13mm modular eyepiece?Is Answered? Yes (1 answer)
Answer rated: 0This Barlow is designed especially for the Hyperion Zoom, so it gives the best results with this eyepiece. If you have this Barlow already, you can use it with other eyepieces, too - otherwise, a more "generic" barlow like Q-Turret or VIP barlow would probably be a better choice.Answer by: Baader Web Team (Admin) on Jan 23, 2023 9:34:00 AMRated: 01/21/2023 8:04 PM Baader Z(AP)-Dovetail Clamp 200mm length
Are the clamping screws long enough to also hold the Telementor/Telemator dovetail (35 mm versus 40 mm on the larger Carl Zeiss Jena telescopes) ?Is Answered? Yes (1 answer)
