Your scope when you turn it on should go through some automatic setup configuration to find north and its tilt. You need to read your manual and also enter your location, time and date.Once that is over it should prompt you to do a three star alignment. The scope will point to a star and ask you to center the brightest star and so on for the rest of them. Once all that is completed your scope will know where to go otherwise it will be dead in the water. I've had a Meade in the past so I'm only going off memory and I'm sure someone will correct me if im off by a bit. You really need to read the manual, we all get excite with new toys and want to get out and start without the ground work.

Good luck.
