For the EQ6/NEQ6, if you select a target from the handset database, SynScan will also automatically select tracking (sidereal most of the time, lunar for moon). In fact, even if you manually slew to a target, SynScan will automatically track at the sidereal rate. You only need to manually select a tracking rate for solar.

If you slew to a target and SynScan doesn't track, there's something wrong.

(This is after star alignment. Prior to that, it may not track - I haven't tested it, but might do that shortly).

I can't speak for other mounts.
