Thanks for that Ben I will look in to that software. It looks like it is compatible.
I think I want to also learn how to do the alignment manually too.
The main thing that is confusing me is the dials or circles.
In the picture, I set the time and date to midnight May 8th. Comparing the polar scope with Stellarium, the Octans stars are in the correct place.
What confuses me is that when the RA axis is tracking clockwise, the time circle goes backwards in time towards 2300 hours. Is this what is supposed to happen? Or am I doing the complete wrong thing with the circles? Maybe the circles are only useful in the northern hemisphere?
