The Story

The laser pointer is for polar alignment in the Northern Hemisphere.
After attaching it to the star tracker, simply turn it on and point it at Polaris. Once aligned, your polar alignment is complete.

Specifications:

Length: 97mm
Diameter of Laser Head: 21.3 mm
Output: 5mw /Class3B
Battery Model: Rechargeable 16340 included
Charger: USB Charger included
Laser Beam : Adjustable

Safety Notice: Please use the laser responsibly and avoid pointing it toward aircraft, vehicles, people, or eyes. Turn the laser on only when needed during polar alignment.

How to Mount the Laser Pointer to the NOMAD:

  1. Unscrew the red screw plug at the back of the NOMAD.
  2. Remove the insulating paper inside the laser and the protective cap on the laser head.
  3. Screw the laser adapter onto the laser.
  4. Mount the laser to the back of the NOMAD.


How to Mount the Laser Pointer to Sky-Watcher or iOptron:

  1. Remove the insulating paper inside the laser and the protective cap on the laser head.
  2. Screw the laser into the SW Laser Adapter or IO Laser Adapter (depending on whether you are using a Sky-Watcher or iOptron star tracker).
  3. Attach the laser and adapter combo to the polar scope of your Sky-Watcher or iOptron mount. 

For iOptron SkyGuider Pro (Threaded part inside), you’ll want to purchase the IO Laser Kit from this page: IO Laser Kit

📌SW Laser Adapter Kit is Also Compatible with the MSM Polar Scope

Thanks to Alex McGregor! He discovered that the SW Laser Adapter we originally designed for the Sky-Watcher series star trackers also works with the MSM Polar Scope. By using this adapter on the MSM Polar Scope, the laser blocking issue on the NOMAD can be resolved in most situations.

How to Use it?

  • Screw out the laser cap first

  • Attach the laser to the SW Laser Adapter

  • Attach this combo of laser and adapter to the polar scope and tighten it
  • Setup done
