Thx Andrew will check out the the Max Alt setting and the Targets setting.
When i did Cntrl-F command via a terminal connection the hbx replied with an "A" which is supposed to mean Alt/Az

I suspect you are AltAz and Astronomical.
The 497 firmware responds differently to the LX200GPS firmware, and the ASCOM driver is written to suit the LX200.
Pretty sure it will be the Upper limit is less than +90

BTW do you know if there a way to power on the Autostar HBX without powering the mount.

Yep. Just supply 12V via a correctly wired dummy RJ plug and it will start, ( which is what i do when reqd )
or buy a pre made adapter like

and you can plug the std Hbx cable into the box
Audiostars will beep at you but pressing enter gets past that.
Once started, you can enquire on status etc, but just dont try to slew.
