  46. STT and STXL Common Features The STT and STXL share some common design features: • Self-Guiding CCD in front of the filters • Micron Precision Filter Wheels • Ethernet and USB 2.0 • Pin-fin heat sinks for superior cooling • Even-illumination (photometric) shutters • Internal Image Processing • RBI Pre-Flash • Common Remote Guide Head • Adaptive Optics Compatible • Water cooling ready

  47. STT and STXL Common Features All STT and STXL cameras have water cooling capability if needed Not an expensive add-on

  48. STT and STXL Common Features STT and STXL Cameras have both Ethernet and USB 2.0 connectivity Built-in web server allows control over a network or internet and wireless control

  49. STT and STXL Common Features Self-Guiding in Front of the Filters: • Self-guiding is the most accurate, particularly with commercial SCTs. • Can be difficult to find bright stars through dark or narrowband filters. • The STT filter wheel incorporates the self-guiding CCD that picks off light from the guide stars before passing through the filters. • Two adjustment knobs on the filter wheel base: one for focus and one for moving the pick-off mirror. Problem solved.

  50. STT and STXL Common Features Micron-Precision Filter Positioning The STT filter wheel is designed to provide a new level of accuracy when taking flats through filters When taking flat field frames the flat field frame must show exactly the same optical characteristics to be effective The STT and STXL filter wheels reposition filters to within 5 microns every time Allows extremely accurate flat field frames even after rotating the filter wheel several times, or even after a loss of power.
