Sagitta features a large brass split-clamp for attachment of any 1-1\/4” format guide camera with plenty of range for setting the guide camera parfocal to the imaging camera. Adjusting the prism stalk height can be accomplished with a single tool and provides prism engagement adjustment of 12mm. Overall, guide camera adjustments exceed 42mm while the OAG body thickness is held at only 31.75mm or 1-1\/4”.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDesigned as a robust alternative for the OAG market, Sagitta Motorized Off-Axis Guider can be installed and configured for years of unattended use. A new, shorter 3-inch dovetail standard, the OPTEC-3000-S, rounds out the package with a variety of mating adapters. Any required adapter not available from Optec’s expanding inventory can be ordered through Precise Parts (www.preciseparts.com) to complete the camera side or telescope side connections to your imaging gear.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eUnique Benefits for Independent Guider Focus\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDesigned especially with the Lacerta for Lodestar in mind, Sagitta allows slight adjustments to the guider focus for optimal performance with FocusLock continual focusing software.  Set the guider focus remotely, perform a calibration run, and you can enjoy continous, perfect focus regardless of temperature or other adverse conditions normally affecting focus.  With FocusLock, as long as you’re guiding the primary imager remains in focus.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eFor users of filter focus offsets, a problem occurs when the filter wheel is positioned behind the Motorized Off-Axis Guider OAG.  Applying an offset for non-parfocal filters will keep the primary imager in focus, but the guide camera will be de-focused for that filter.  With Sagitta, this effect can be effective reversed in software.  As the primary focuser moves out, say 50 microns, the Sagitta can simultaneously be moved inward by the same amount.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eOptec’s Sagitta OAG can be purchased with the guider motor attached (#19340) or without the motor for manual guider focus (#19342). The motorized version requires the FocusLynx control hub and is an ideal use of the Focuser 2 port for owners of FocusLynx or FocusBoss II controllers.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eFor owners of the manual Sagitta OAG, Optec also offers a motor upgrade easily installed with four socket cap bolts.  See #19349 for details.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eController
