Alignmaster ALT-AZ adjustment problem

Hi,

I have recently started using AlignMaster to improve my equatorial mount's alignment. The software is a real boon and is easy to use, but I have one major issue:

When I select either AZ or ALT to correct the mount's misalignment, the software moves the target star in two directions, instead of just one. I can't see how the software is doing this (it should be just one direction). Of course, with the star now off-set in the other direction to the adjustment, it's not possible to centre the star, and I'm left scratching my head as to where to move the star to.

Would anyone know how to get Alignmaster to move the star in just one direction at a time? Alternatively, does anyone know of a workaround that works effectively? My mount is a Losmandy G11 with Level 4 Gemini controller.

Thanks in advance,
Paul.
