Thanks to \u003cstrong\u003eHelioFind™ technology\u003c\/strong\u003e, simply level the tripod and point the telescope anywhere to the left of the Sun: the mount levels itself automatically, calculates the Sun's altitude and azimuth using its integrated GPS and time data, and rotates clockwise until it finds it. Once detected by the solar sensor, the Sun is \u003cstrong\u003esilently located and tracked\u003c\/strong\u003e, staying centred in the eyepiece's field of view.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eHelioFind™ Technology: Automatic Solar Alignment and Tracking\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAt the heart of the Acuter SunTracker AZ is the \u003cstrong\u003eHelioFind™ solar sensor with 4 photodiodes and integrated GPS\u003c\/strong\u003e, which calculates the Sun's position and altitude in real time. A \u003cstrong\u003e3-axis accelerometer\u003c\/strong\u003e ensures automatic levelling of the telescope, while continuous feedback from the solar sensor automatically corrects drift and compensates pointing.
