Many of us have faced varying degrees of challenges to polar align our equatorial mount. Be it neck pain, stress on the knees or accidentally kicking the tripod, you must have had some of these frustrations down the load. PoleMaster allows you to do polar alignment at the comfort in front of your computer to a high degree of precision. While it will not help you align your mount mechanically, you can easily tell the true north position from your screen and adjust your mount accordingly without squatting, kneeling or whatever pose you favour to look through the polar scope. PoleMaster is very simple to use. Simply attach it to the RA axis of your mount with mount specific adapter, with Polaris and the surrounding region visible, PoleMaster software will do an accurate plate solving and show you the current pointing of RA axis and the true north position. Overlap these two circles and you are good to go. Adapters available: Losmandy G11, GM8 MESU 200 Paramount MX (circular polar cap version) SkyWactcher EQ8 Takahashi EM-400, EM-500 Takahashi NJP
