Alas it doesn't. You can indeed lie to the hand controller about alignment stars, but that doesn't help any. It doesn't have a Sun object to slew to nor can a user defined object be used to define a solar system object, only fixed ra/dec objects, hence you can't even fake up a Sun object. For Sync, you have to slew to an alignment star and sync on the alignment star. Not too useful during the daytime.
