OCAL Version 4.0 - Electronic Collimator with improved Performance

The OCAL collimator version 4.0 is ideal for the collimation of Schmidt Cassegrain telescopes, RC and CDK telescopes, hyperbolic astrographs and Newtonians


  • Quick and easy: Collimate your instrument in just 4 steps!
  • Can check if the center mark on the primary mirror is made correctly or not.
  • Increased level of pixel accuracy, also suitable for Newtonians faster than f/5
  • T2 thread (M42x0.75) to minimize installation errors
  • Comes with two adapters for easier installation to the telescope
  • Thanks to the collimation assistance feature the result is shown immediately on the screen.
  • You can also use the screenshot feature to save the result of the collimation.
  • Comes with OTG adapter for the USB connection to an Android smartphone

The OCAL 4 Electronic Collimator is a revolutionary new device for collimating reflecting telescopes with the aid of powerful and easy to use software. With the aid of precise calibration guides, the OCAL makes the daunting task of collimation a breeze.

The new 4 version offers some enhancements of the predecessor while retaining its the core stability. With an aperture slightly reduced, the 4.0 version brings several significant advantages.

Superior Image Quality: with a higher pixel density and advanced CMOS technology, the 4.0 reaches significantly better image clarity and detail, improving the 3.0MAX in visual fidelity and precision.

Optimized Display: a redesigned 4:3 screen ratio provides a more accurate view of the internal structure of the telescope, offering a users clearer and more intuitive observation angles compared to the previous 16:9 format of the 3.0MAX.

Enhanced Stability: without changing the 3A process and precision assembly, the 4.0 offers a more compact design and reduction in weight to boost durability. The result is a stronger device which preserve calibration accuracy if minor impacts occur during regular usage.

Refined Design: a new red casing and newly circular markings have been instroduced to  make easier to identify reflective surface of the calibrator.
