How Do You Align The Smartfinder Of Your Meade DS-2000 Series Reflecting Telescope?

It is recommended that you perform steps 1 through 4 of this procedure during the daytime and step 5 at night. Loosen the tripod base lock knob and the altitude lock so that the telescope can move freely. If you have not already done so, place a low-power eyepiece in the diagonal prism of the main telescope and point the telescope at an easy-to-find land object.

Turn the focuser knob to focus the image in the eyepiece. Center the object precisely. Re-tighten the tripod base lock knob and the altitude lock so that the telescope does not move during the procedure.

Look through the Smartfinder. Turn theSmartfinder's two alignment screws until Smartfinder's red dot points precisely at the same object as centered in the eyepiece. Smartfinder is now aligned to the main telescope.

Check this alignment on a celestial object, such as the moon or a bright star, and make any necessary refinements. More.

I cant really gove you an answer,but what I can give you is a way to a solution, that is you have to find the anglde that you relate to or peaks your interest.
