It maybe working off the RA and Dec for one of the stars of near the SCP, like Sigma Octanis.
Regardless of what that tool tells you, you may need to add calibration stars to your mount alignment. If you slew to target stars either side of the Meridian, near the equator, are they dead centre in the field of your chosen scope? Then you have possible scope cone error as well.

Well, it is very new and I’ve only used it once as a test but when I did a GoTo to M42 yes it smack in the middle of the EP but we’re not talking high magnification - Ethos 13mm in a 450mm scope for 34x, but still, in the middle.
