In an astrolabe (Delhi Q) that was shown to me in Delhi there are two other types: (i) a tablet with co-ordinates for latitudes 30° (13ʰ 56ᵐ) and 28° (13ʰ 46ᵐ) engraved on the same side, and a similar one for latitudes 40 (14ʰ 51ᵐ) and 62°; (ii) a tablet split into two halves along the meridian, for latitudes 32° (14ʰ 6ᵐ) and 36° (14ʰ 26ᵐ).
