Introduction Nexus DSC is a digital setting circles computer with included WiFi interface for your telescope. It works with most popular telescopes – on equatorial or Alt-Azimuth mounts. Nexus DSC is a very sophisticated device for locating celestial object in the sky. Only two rotary encoders have to be fitted to your telescope in order to be able to locate celestial object with Nexus DSC.
Encoders and wiring are not included.

Digital setting circles specifications
• Intuitive graphical user interface
• Supports Alt-Az mounts, Equatorial Mounts, Equatorial Platforms
• Supports a two star alignment
• Filter objects by magnitude, constellation and object type
• Internal FLASH memory contains a database of more than 73500 objects:
o Named stars
o Bright stars, Flamsteed, Bayer, Asterisms
o Planets, Sun, Moon
o Common named objects
o Full catalogues: Abell Galaxy Clusters, Abell Planetaries, Arakelian, Arp Peculiar Galaxies, Barnard, Caldwell, Collinder, ESO, Herschel, Hickson Compact Groups, King, LBN, Markarian galaxies, Messier, Minkowski planetaries, IC, NGC, Palomar Globulars, PK, PN, Sharpless, Stock, Terzan, Trumpler, UGC, etc.--64 in all.
* catalogues can be deselected so they don't show up in a nightly search.
