Mirror Cells
Remote Collumnation

The remote collumnation feature is available installed
with your order or as a kit for installation on an existing mirror cell.
Description: Two collumnation adjustment screws on the
cell are driven by 12V gear reduction motors via a ¼ in. wide flat belt. Manual
adjustment of the collumnation screws is still possible by disengaging an idler
pulley to relieve belt tension. Control of the motors is accomplished by a FOB
similar to a car key FOB. There are two buttons for each motor: up/down.
The goal of this option is to allow astronomers with a
large DOP to perform fine adjustments to mirror collumnation fro the eye piece,
while performing a start test.
