Instruction for Upgrading an iEQ30 Mount to an iEQ30Pro Mount
January 2017
Thisinstructiononlyprovidesatechnicalreference.Itisatyourownrisktoperformtheupgradingyourself.
iOptronassumesnoliabilityonanyequipmentdamageorpersonalinjury.
The iEQ30 Pro upgrade kit includes following parts:
 R.A. module (R.A. worm assembly, stepper
motor, R.A. control board, pulley and belt)
 DEC module (DEC worm assembly, stepper
motor, R.A. control board, pulley and belt)
 Main control board with GPS and connection
cable
 R.A. module and main board cover
 Main board base fixture
 DEC module cover
 Screws
Tools Needed: 2mm and 3mm Allen wrench, a
Phillips screw driver and a pair of nose pliers. A
shortened 3 mm Allen wrench is needed to access
one screw in steps 6 and 8.
This instruction will demonstrate how to replace
the RA unit only when upgrading an iEQ30 mount
to an iEQ30 Pro mount. The procedure for replacing
the DEC unit is similar.
1. Put a mount on a flat surface, or you may install
the mount on your tripod. Release R.A. axis to
avoid gear damage during hardware
upgrading. Unscrew four (4) screws from R.A.
motor cover with a 2mm Allen wrench (2 on each
side).
2. Remove four (4) R.A. gear positioning screws
with a 3mm Allen wrench (2 on each side).
Remove the R.A. worm assembly with the RA
and main boards.
Internal Use Only
3. Unscrew these two screws to remove the worm
assembly supporting block from the. Unscrew
two aluminum standoffs.
4. Clean and re-grease the ring gear.
5. Grease the R.A. worm of a new iEQ30 Pro RA
motor assembly.
6. Place the iEQ30 Pro R.A. module onto the mount.
Insert two new gear positioning screws that come
with the package and tighten them loosely, as
shown in the following photo. You need the
special wrench to access one of the two screws.
Insert and loosely tighten other two screws on
the other side of the mount, as shown in the
following photo.
7. Double check the spacing between R.A. worm
mounting bracket and the front cover of ring gear
housing to make sure they are evenly spaced
form end to end.
8. Fasten the R.A. module by tightening these two
gear positioning screws first, as shown in the
following.
Then tighten the other two screws on the other
side of the mount.
Internal Use Only
Lock the R.A. axis and gently pull the belt to turn
the worm in both directions. You should be able
to pull rotate the R.A. gear smoothly and evenly.
If you feel it is difficult to pull the belt in one
direction, the worm/gear meshing is not evenly.
Slightly release four gear positioning screws and
adjust the worm assembly.
9. Gently push down the R.A. module with your
finger to feel if the Tension Spring is loaded.
Normally, the module can be pressed down and
sprint back right away when the finger is released.
The travel range is about 1mm. If the spring is
loaded properly, go to Step 14.
10. The spring locates under the R.A. board.
11. Remove the R.A. board by unscrewing three
screws.
12. Loose the locking nut use a pair of nose pliers
first. Use a 2mm wrench to release the treaded
post ½ turn. Press the R.A. module again to
check. Tighten the threaded post when finished. t
13. Replace the R.A. board and tighten the screws.
14. Insert the black main board base fixture under
the R.A. assembly. Secure the fixture by
tightening two screws (one on each side).
15.
Internal Use Only
16. Install the main board and secure it with a small
screw the small screw. Connect the wire between
main board and R.A. board.
17. Install the cover for R.A. module and main board
by screwing the four screws.
18. Replace the DEC module and cover.
19. Connect R.A. and DEC units, plug in HC and
power supply.
20. Upgrade hand controller firmware to iEQ30 Pro.
21. Make sure that the firmware version of all 3
boards is up to date. Slew the mount in R.A. and
DEC to check the worm/gear meshing. It will be
very helpful if you have a way to measure the
current while R.A. or DEC motor is slewing.
