The method works to get a good initial approximation, but it is not very accurate. There is no easy way to set the mount at exactly the home position, and the initial slew may be affected by other stuff the SynScan controller remembers (like cone error and NPE). I use this method to gauge how far I'm out after initial setup, and bring things closer to home before starting alignment.
