Hi Al, thanks for the reply. I intend to update the handset for the owner as the setup is apparently around fifteen years old and seen very little use as she has always struggled to make sense of the alignment process. We battled with it for around three hours last night and after finally getting the alignment successful message on the handset it failed to align on a chosen target, it was in fact way off which is really odd. I edited a site with our current lat/long and the mount was level and polar aligned. The first alignment star Sirius was brought into centre by adjusting the mount and the second star Capella was reasonably close and was brought to centre with the handset, although I found trying to adjust the rate speed to move the mount changed the tracking speed which is not what occurs with a SynScan handset. Chose Orion Nebula and the mount was way off target. Now to find out if the app will work with a SynScan WiFi or a Nexus unit instead of the Meade WiFi which is pretty pricey.
