By PAE I meant "pointing accuracy enhancement", it's got nothing to do with polar alignment.

There are two methods for accessing PAE – via the PAE menu under Utility, or by pressing and holding ESC for 2 seconds, like you said. Both should have the same effect. This effect is limited to the zone the object was in, and neighbouring zones. I'm not sure how big those zones are or how they are shaped, the manual doesn't say, but there are 85 of them.

PAE data is kept until explicitly deleted or until another star alignment is performed.

Cheers
