[. . . ] Instruction Manual Autostar #494 Computer Controller ® Meade Instruments Corporation QUICK START GUIDE WARNING: Never use Autostar to move a telescope to look at the Sun!Looking at or near the Sun will cause instant and irreversible damage to your eye. Eye damage is often painless, so there is no warning to the observer that damage has occurred until it is too late. Do not point a telescope or its viewfinder at or near the Sun. [. . . ] IMPORTANT NOTE: The accuracy of One-Star Alt/Az Alignment, unlike the Two-Star Alignment procedures, depends on how well the observer levels the telescope and how close to North the telescope is pointed when setting the Home Position (Fig. Because the Two-Star Alignments use two stars to align upon, they are more precise than One-Star Alignment.
