My mates AZEQ6 was the same it's a software issue ,
we discovered that it ran fine on the ' North ' settings only on set up ? strange yes but it worked until he down loaded a fix 'Patch ? ' and all is now good , do a Google as I am sure the patch is still there.
We pulled our hair out trying to get the hand controller to recognise 'South' to do as it should ,,, frustration city .

So my question is, do I really point it North in AltAz mode when in the Southern hemisphere? Page7 para 2.1 of the Synscan instruction manual.
Hopefuly setting it up outside for the first time tomorrow night.
I will only be using AltAz mode. Strictly visual!
Any advice will be much appreciated.
Michael.
