About this product

Model:  ioptron_hae29_b_ec
Part Number:  HE294B

iOptron HAE29B-EC Strain Wave AZ/EQ Mounting.

Keeping pace with rapidly developing technology, the iOptron HAE29 and HAE29EC mounts are now joined by new "B" iMate versions.

iMate models feature a powerful 64-bit ARM-based onboard computer with Wi-Fi, preloaded KStars Planetarium Software, and EKOS control and automation tool with INDI drivers.

This hardware-software combination will support the use of most current and future devices, enabling the user to choose a range of brands and models (cameras, focusers, filter wheels, etc).

With 32 GB eMMC storage and a slot for up to 64 GB TF (micro SD) memory, the iMate can control and capture an entire automated session.

The iMate is cross-platform; you can use it with Windows, IOS, Linux,  Android, etc.

All HAE iMate dual strainwave Alt-Az/EQ mounts now have an internal main board and no longer require a handset.

The HAE29B-EC features a high-precision RA-axis encoder that delivers incredible tracking accuracy, enough that many will choose to image “sans” guiding.

Imagine a mount head weighing only 8 lbs, with a payload capability of 40 lbs, without needing a cumbersome counterweight or shaft. iOptron’s multi-decade experience creating precision mounts has made this possible.

The HAE29 utilises state-of-the-art strain wave gear technology for both the RA and DEC axes, delivering unparalleled weight-to-payload efficiency.

Its black anodised all-metal CNC machined body provides a rugged platform that will perform at the highest level for many years. 

Unique features such as an electronic friction break and power-down memory enable the mount to stop and resume a GoTo slew safely or continue tracking even after an abrupt power loss (No need to realign and start from the beginning).

The mount can be controlled by a computer, either via ASCOM/Commander for a Windows PC or a third-party INDI driver for MacOS software, a SmartPhone/Tablet via iOptron Commander Lite or an App like SkySafari, or a Raspberry Pi device via INDI driver.
