 A necessary and sufficient condition for a central-axonometric reference 
system to be the image of a positively oriented orthonormal frame under 
a central projection is given by a single complex equation. The presented 
equation is an analogon of the Gauss equation that characterizes the 
reference system of an orthogonal axonometry.
 
 Keywords: central projection, central axonometry, Gauss equation.
