remaining error after doing an alignment, it is not showing you the error,
it is showing you the corrections you have to make to the mount to remove the error. For example, if it says Alt -3 Degrees 32mins 10 secs,
that means you have to reduce your Alt by that amount. Just in case
you weren't aware of it, the further the mount is from level, the more
adjusting one axis will affect the other one.

Yep it's on 3.35 I'll need to try out the alignment.
