   Focusmate  

Focusmate

For visual or CCD use, focusing a Tele Vue telescope can now be smoother, more accurate and vibration – free when you add the Focusmate plus the new Focusmate Driver (FDR-2001 or FDL-2002). This adjustable speed electric motor drive installs easily onto the Focusmate 6:1 fine focus unit, and offers a unique quick disconnect for switching (without tools) between electric and manual operation .

If the Digital Micrometer Kit (DMK-0002), is also installed, measurement is possible to an unprecedented .0001" (1/10,000"). A gentle tap on the motor direction switch can produce steps as small as about .0005" (5/10,000").

All Tele Vue scopes having focusing knobs with 5 holes will accept the Focusmate 6:1 reducer and the Focusmate Driver. All current production Tele Vue scopes from the TV-76 through NP-127 now accept the Digital Micrometer Kit, as well, so that their fullest imaging and visual performance can be realized. Truly, focusing will be “even better than you imagined.”

The Focusmate Driver is available as FDR-2001 Focusmate Driver for right handed Focusmate installation on all 4" and 5" telescopes, The FDL-2002 Focusmate Driver for left-handed Focusmate installation on all 4" and 5" telescopes.

This left-handed model FDL-2002 is also used on TV60is, TV-76, TV-85 where it is attached to a Focusmate mounted on the right-side as shown. On TV-76 and TV-85 this maintains full forward telescope positioning in the ring mount for balancing (APB-1008 balance aid is recommended).
