How to Use this Quick Setup Guide

Refer to this guide to get your telescope setup and aligned
with StarSense and the SkyPortal app using your smart
device . Here you will also find useful information about the
EdgeHD optical tube assembly and different options for
astrophotography . From there, refer to the full NexStar
Evolution and StarSense manuals included with your telescope
for more advanced settings options, including usage of the
StarSense hand control .
Note that the NexStar Evolution manual refers to
Schmidt-Cassegrain optical tubes and the NexStar+ hand
control which are not part of your telescope . The key
differences in your telescope are the 8" EdgeHD optical tube,
StarSense AutoAlign camera, and StarSense hand control .
