Lunar Tracking with Astromeccanica Motors (DA1): Possible?

This should be in the equipment section but given that it relates to tomorrow's eclipse, I thought it would be best in here.

I have an EQ6 with the DA1 handcontroller and I was just wondering if it was possible to lunar track with this controller. There is no specific "lunar" track option but I can increase or decrease the sidereal rate in steps of 0.039X. Am I simple able to adjust this setting to be able to track the moon? If so, does anybody know the rough tracking rate I need to type in?
