Tele Vue Focusmate

Focusmate Driver

For visual or CCD use, focusing a Tele Vue telescope can now be smoother, more accurate and vibration – free when you add the Focusmate plus the new Focusmate Driver (FDR-2001 or FDL-2002).

This adjustable speed electric motor drive installs easily onto the Focusmate 6:1 fine focus unit, and offers a unique quick disconnect for switching (without tools) between electric and manual operation .

Truly, focusing will be even better than you imagined.

If the Digital Micrometer Kit (DMK-0002), is also installed, measurement is possible to an unprecedented .0001" (1/10,000"). A gentle tap on the motor direction switch can produce steps as small as about .0005" (5/10,000").

All Tele Vue scopes having focusing knobs with 5 holes will accept the Focusmate 6:1 reducer and the Focusmate Driver. All current production Tele Vue scopes from the TV-76 through NP-127 now accept the Digital Micrometer Kit, as well, so that their fullest imaging and visual performance can be realized.

Focus Lever

Tele Vue Focus Lever Snap-on addition to Tele Vue focuser knobs makes critical focusing easier while minimizing transmitted hand vibrations. Great for focusing with gloves. However, this does not work with knobs on TeleVue brass telescopes.
