I have a Vixen Sky Sensor 2000pc and I think it can be give comet data and track it,not sure if an astriod would be similar-and its been a while since I have used it,but looking at giving it ago.
not sure where to find a sky view map,I did see the link given which showed one for S.A area-certainly be handy if there was a S.E QLD one somewhere.

5am is daylight Chris, So you would see nothing.
find your coordinates from here then find it visually.

Best view for SEQ will be about 03:30 before it starts getting light.
The asteroid will still be only mag 9.7, so quite faint really,but should be
alright for imaging.
Cheers
