While viewing an object in the eyepiece, observe the responsiveness of each of the four arrow
buttons. Note which directions you see a pause in the star movement after the button has been pressed.
Working one axis at a time, adjust the backlash settings high enough to cause immediate movement without
resulting in a pronounced jump when pressing or releasing the button. The hand controller will remember
these values and use them each time it is turned on until they are changed.
5.3.4. Meridian Treatment
This function tells mount what to do when it tracks across the meridian. There are three options.
Stop Tracking will stop the mount when it passes the meridian. Telescope Flip will flip the telescope and
continuous to track the object. The third option is Continue to Track. In this case, the mount will keep
tracking and the OTA could hit the tripod leg if the mount is not monitored.
5.3.5. Track Below Horizon
This function allows mount to keep tracking an object even it is below horizon but still can be seen
from an elevated observation site, such as at a hill. The power on default is at OFF state. One can turn it on
when needed.
5.3.6. Set Polar Light
Use this function to adjust the light intensity of ZEQ25GT illuminated polar scope. If you have an
illuminated-reticule eyepiece and has the same socket size, you may use this option to adjust its light
intensity.

This option will display firmware version information of hand controller, R.A. control board and DEC
control board.
