What does no response 16 mean on a 8se nexstar
This means that the hand control has lost communication with the electronics board within the base of the telescope. The
number following this message will indicate the address of the
component that has lost communication. 16 indicates the azimuth or RA
motor board, 17 the altitude (declination) motor board. Unfortunately,
this number doesn't tell why the error has occurred.
To
clear the no response messages, repeatedly press UNDO. This fix may be
only temporary and does not address the potential underlying problem.
You may want to send it in/return it for repairs.

Focus knob turns but nothing moves
The Celestron manual for this scope has nothing to say, but on the underside of the focuser assembly, between the 2 focus knobs, you may see 2 screws.They might be thumbscrews or some other screwhead type. One is the adjustment for the focuser internal clearance, or looseness, and the other is a focus travel lock.If present, try backing both off 1/2 turn from tightness, and then experiment to see which is which. The focus lock will have no effect until tight, when the focuser will cease moving, as is now. The other screw will gradually remove looseness and rattle from the focuser until it just moves smoothly, with no back and forth loose feeling at the knob.If neither of these screws is visible you will have to take it to a binocular and telescope shop, where they should not charge much.
What is the weight of the celestron next star se 8
It is impossible to assess the weight (or more correctly Mass of a star, as weight is a perceived function of Earth's gravity) without knowing the chemical make up of the star. That is why astronomers use the star's measured albedo to qualify and quantify them.
Celestron skyprodigy 70
Sky Prodigy does not have you align on stars but self aligns on images from the mount's camera (much like satellites do to orient), so ignore any incorrect suggestions about picking alignment stars, centering them, moving axes, entering correct dates or info. You should just turn it on and it figures everything out in 10 or so minutes alone. Thiscode is likely a hand controller failure and you need to call Celestron. Mine did this too. good luck, you will need it...

I dont understand how to
Basically, enter Time, Date, and Site-- level the tripod and do a 2 or 3 star alignment.
All of the manuals are on the Celestron web site here--
