4. Continue pressing the
to repeat, then select a different mode.
5. You don't have to listen to all items in each mode, you can jump from mode to mode if you choose.
6. Each time you choose a new mode, directions are given for the first object in each mode. Simply move
your telescope to view them and enjoy the information as it is spoken.
7. The planets mode is a unique mode that allows you to hear basic information about the five brightest
planets and the moon.
8. Once you've finished the tour of each mode, you can advance to the next tour object by pressing the
mode button a second time. This will advance the handset to the next item in the tour.
9. There is no "power off" button-the handset will automatically power off after a few minutes of inactivity

When using an internet source or map to look up the latitude and longitude coordinates for your location,
you may find them listed in one of several different possible formats. For example:
• As a string of three 2 digit numbers followed by a letter, e.g. 38°96'18" n. This is shorthand for "Latitude 38
degrees, 96 minutes, 18 seconds north".
• As a two digit number, extended out to four (or more) decimal places. The two numerals before the decimal
point are the latitude or longitude in degrees, and numerals after the decimal point are the minutes and
seconds, e.g. 38.9618, which is another way to notate "Latitude 38 degrees, 96 minutes, 18 seconds north".
In this format, positive numbers for Latitude=north, negative numbers=South. For Longitude numbers,
positive values=East, negative values=West.
• As a simple two digit number followed by the direction (north or South for Latitude, East or West for
Longitude). The number represents only the degrees, with the finer increments of minutes and seconds
"rounded up" to the nearest degree. This provides enough accuracy for many applications, such as setting
up the Voyage telescope. this is the format you will use to enter your location into the voyager handset.
see the examples below if you need help "converting" another location coordinate format.
