AO-X

AO-X

The SBIG AO-X is a large aperture AO designed to be compatible with all STX and STXL series cameras, including the STX-16803, STXL-16200, STXL-11000 and STXL-6303.  The AO-X requires minimal backfocus while offering a large 3″ aperture optical element, which is large enough to cover the KAF-16803 CCD sensor.

The AO-X requires an off-axis guide camera behind the device.  For STXL cameras, we recommend using the FW8G-STXL filter wheel.  For STX cameras, the AO-X stacks on top of the FW7-STX and STX Guider.  (Can also be used with FW5-STX.)  The AO-X can also be used with a Remote Guide Head if you have a custom Off-Axis Guider setup.
