Deluxe II Laser Collimator
Newtonian reflectors perform at their best when primary and secondary
mirrors are accurately aligned. Such highly resolved view through the
telescope. Collimation, while intimidating at first glance, accurately alig-
ned. Such alignment, alled collimation, is critical for achieving a sharp,
accurately aligned. Such alignment, called collimation, is critical for
achieving a sharp, highly resolved view through the telescope. Collim-
ation, while intimidating at first glance, is really not difficult to do. And
it's made all the easier with the DeluxeII! This handy tool, designed
specifically alignment, called collimation, is critical for achieving a
sharp, for collimating the optics of Newtonian reflectors, provides a
quick, easy way to a) determine if one or both of your telescope's
mirrors need adjustment, necessary adjustment(s) quickly and b) make
the and easily.
The DeluxeII's angled "rear view" screen allows collimation of the primary mirror to
be where the done at the back of the scope, collimation knobs are, obviating the
need to walk of the to the front scope repeatedly.
This second-generation Deluxe improves on the original design by incorporating a
wider flange between the 1.25" barrel and the adjoining housing, to better ensure
that the collimator seats solidly and squarely in the focuser's eyepiece holder.
With the dead-on collimation provided by the Deluxe II, you will enjoy the cleanest,
crispest images possible from your instrument every time out!
There are new following advantages:
1. Laser spots are positive circular spots, common design is elliptical rice grain
spots. The accuracy of calibration is more accurate because of less residual light
and less halo in positive circular spots.
2. The Laser Mate Deluxe II is provided with a rotating cover which can adjust the
coaxiality of the module. Open the rotating cover, There are three adjusting
screws in it. When the focusing is complete, Just screw the cover. It is beautiful
and simple.

WARNING: The Deluxe II emits laser radiation,
so it is important not to is safe to view beam into
your eye. During the collimation procedure, avoid
direct reflections of the laser beam into your eye.
It is safe to view the reflection off a mirror surface
as long as the beam is not directed into your eye.
It is also safe to view the laser when it is reflected
off a surface that diffuses the light, such as the
white "target" on the angled viewing screen. Bec-
ause of the potential danger from the laser beam,
store your laser out of the reach of children.

Fingure1. the Deluxe II laser collimator
01
This laser collimator uses a low-wattage laser to project a red beam down through
the telescope's focuser. The beam reflects off the secondary mirror to the primary
mirror, then bounces back up to the secondary mirror and exits through the focuser
onto the angled,bul ls-eye viewing screen of the collimator itself. The beam is
generally not visible, but you'll see a bright red dot on each reflected surface.
The Deluxe II works equally well to collimate telescope optics in dayl ight or at night
in the dark.
The laser diode has been precisely aligned within its housing at the factory.
Do not remove the label on the housing or attempt to make adjustments to the
Laser's alignment screw (which have been covered to prevent access);
doing so will void the terms of the warranty.
Befor You Begin Collimating with the Deluxe II
Accurate collimation of your telescope's optics using the Deluxe II will most easily
be achieved if you do a rough collimation of the optics with your eye first. This is
because if the optics are grossly misal igned, it may be confusing to interpret which
surfaces the laser is being reflected off. Refer to your procedure on how to do a
telescope's instruction manual for the rough collimation with your eye.
Is Your Primary Mirror Center-Marked?
For best results in collimating your Newtonian's
optics, the exact center of the primary mirror sho-
uld be marked beforehand. Almost al l Newtonian
reflectors come precisely center-marked from the
factory, with a tiny adhesive ring applied to the
mirror surface (Figure 2). It doesn't interfere with
the light path or degrade the image you see since
it lies in the shadow of the secondary mirror, so it
should not be remove. If your primary mirror is not
center-marked, see Appendix A for instructions on
how to mark it using one of the adhesive rings
supplied with the Deluxe II.
Adjusting the Tilt of the Secondary
Mirror
The first step in the collimation procedure is to
On/Off
check the al ignment of the secondary mirror and
knob
adjust it if necessary. Insert the Deluxe II into your
telescope's focuser drawtube (Figure 3) and sec-
ure it with the thumbscrews on the drawtube collar.
(If possible, orient your telescope's optical tube so
that it is parallel to the ground, with the focuser
straight up, as in Figure 3. Being perpendicular to
the force of gravity ensures that the collimator will
seat squarely in the eyepiece holder. In this orien-
tation you do not even need to tighten the thumb-
screw on the holder that secures an eyepiece in
place-in fact we recommend you don't, as doing
so can skew the collimator slightly off the optical
