To check on the available amount of memory in
AudioStar.
AudioStar has a limited amount of memory. Once you
begin to store Landmarks, User Objects and other bits
of information in AudioStar, you will begin to use up
memory. This procedure allows you to check on how
much memory is still available.
1. Navigate to the “Setup: Statistics” menu option
and press ENTER.
2. “Statistics: 97.4K Char. Free” displays. This is
the amount of memory that is still available to
the user.
Identify
This procedure allows you to use AudioStar to identify
objects you have found in the night sky using the Arrow
keys. If the object is not in AudioStar’s database,
AudioStar displays information about an object in its
database that is closest to the one you queried about.
Important Note: The telescope must be
successfully aligned before the Identify feature
can be used. Once aligned, it cannot be
physically moved from that location. Moving
the telescope disrupts the telescopes frame
of reference to the night sky and will prevent it
from identifying objects.
In this procedure, you will center an object you wish to
have identied by AudioStar in the telescope eyepiece
and use the “Identify” menu to nd out information
about the object or the nearest object to it in the
AudioStar database.
1. Center the object you wish to have identied in
the telescope’s eyepiece.
2. Navigate to the “Object: Identify” option and
press ENTER.
3. “Searching...” displays. When AudioStar
nishes calculating, the name of the closest
object displays.
4. Press a Scroll key to display information about
this object. AudioStar displays some or all the
following information about the object with each
press of a Scroll key:
