The lightweight, compact HAZ46 Strain Wave Alt-Az Mount from iOptron has a payload capability of 44 lb, without needing a cumbersome counterweight or shaft. HAZ mounts will support a large variety of instruments that require flexibility for outreach programs and satellite tracking. The multi-position saddle, which can be placed on top or to the side, uniquely sets up the HAZ46 to accommodate binoculars. Just turn the mount on, and it will calibrate itself and GoTo the first target utilizing iOptron s time-tested Level and Go technology.
Utilizing strain wave gear technology for both RA and DEC movement, the HAZ46 delivers high weight-to-payload efficiency. Its black anodized all-metal CNC-machined body is not only appealing to the eye, but it s also a rugged platform that will perform at the highest level for many years to come. Unique features such as an electronic friction break and power-down memory allow the mount safely stop and resume a GoTo slew or continue tracking even after an abrupt power loss (No need to realign and start from the beginning).
A HAZ46 mount can be controlled by a computer, either via ASCOM/Commander for a Windows PC or a third-party INDI driver for macOS software a smartphone/tablet via iOptron Commander Lite or an App like SkySafari or a Raspberry Pi device via INDI driver.
