It only has one position for home ( based on the way it blocks/clears a sensor ) and as such, either the disk is mounted 180deg out, or your perception of "home" has been wrong for a while.

Thanks for your prompt reply Andrew.
I have operated this mount successfully for a couple of years and the normal 'Home' position has always been due south, scope pointing at the SCP, unless I have used a custom position. This time it decided that 'home' position was due north with the scope pointing at the floor.
It seems to me as if when finding home position, the mount chose a location closest to where the scope was pointing at the time, which was northwards.
I shall refresh my perception of home position by reading the manual. I shall be surprised if I am absolutely and terribly, terribly wrong!
