Optional Items:

Remote Guide Head
The optional STX Remote Guide Head contains a KAI-340S CCD identical to the guiding CCD
that is built into the camera. This remote head allows you to use a separate guide scope or off-
axis guider to place the guiding CCD outside the filter wheel for convenience when imaging
through narrow band filters or anytime you wish to use an external guider.
FW5-STX, FW7-STX Filter Wheel
50mm and 65 mm filter wheels are available for the STX camera. Filter sets are offered by
Baader Planetarium, Custom Scientific and Astrodon.
STX Guider
This product attaches to the front of a FW7-STX filter wheel, turning it into a self-guiding filter
wheel. The STX Guider is directly compatible with the AO-X adaptive optics unit.
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 requies
minimal backfocus while offering a large 3" aperture optical element, which is large enough to cover the
KAF-16803 CCD sensor.
