Set up your solar telescope.Squeeze the cable lock and gently pull it away from the Helio Pod.Slide the Pod over your telescope with the long end of the Gnomon facing towards the sun.Squeeze and tighten the bungee cord, so the Helio Pod is on the telescope tube. It does not have to be too tight.The orange Gnomon casts a shadow on the round screen.Adjust the angle of your telescope in the opposite direction until the Gnomon casts a minimum shadow.When you have a minimum or no shadow, your scope is pointing at the sun.You may need to add a offset for calibration.
