I only suggested it as a means to test your polar alignment after completing the star alignment, so you don't need to dismantle your optical train.
I've not had much luck with the synscan polar alignment, though it got me started on the road. Before long frustration set in with wildly different figures being returned with subsequent iterations, and this was while using a reticle eyepiece. I ended up seeking alternatives.
From what I understand, the 1-star alignment just applies a time/RA offset and activates tracking. If you have good polar alignment and give the handset accurate time and coordinates, it shouldn't miss by far.
Certainly is a weird one raymo.
