Hi all,
Picked up my scope yesterday from Andrews and trying to learn how to use it Skywatcher 200/1000 Newt + NEQ6pro.
Yesterday was mixed.
1) Nearly took my little finger off while adjusting the Altitude Adjustment T-bolts. I had both bolts in and had my left hand rested on the front one while winding in the back one. I was just about up to Sydney's latitude by winding the back one and the whole thing then fell forward on my little finger, which was on top of the front bolt. The force was so much it bent the bolt. It hurt!
Also left a nice chunk of my finger behind.
2) I got to see Saturn - that was fun.
Now for my question. I have updated my Synscan controller to V4.38.09, which says it now has daytime alignment using sun. For the life of me I cannot get this option to show up. I just see stars when I choose one star alignment. I don't see any other options.
Any help much appreciate.
Thanks
Mick
