The robotic DustCover
protects the primary mirror from dirt and damage; it also supports remote
control of the telescope.
Opening and closing the flaps is
very easy with the Alluna Telescope Control Software (TCS) by clicking on a button
in Tap "DustCover". The flaps can also be opened and closed with the hand control without a connected PC. The current position of the flaps is displayed. Depending on the telescope size, the opening and
closing time is only 5 to 10 seconds. The DustCover has a four-fold design
so the flaps in the open state still offer additional protection against
any stray light.
The robotic dustcover is optionally
available for all our Truss RC- and astrographs telescopes.
