Auto level , auto polar align and know where it is ???
Do you set up and pack your mount away every session ??

Levelling takes 1 minute
Polar alignment takes 5 to 10 minutes ( I’ve had my mount set up in the yard for 6 weeks at a time ( I use a weather cover or cloak , once PA is done your aligned until you pack it up , unless someone’s bumps the tripod )
Mount should know exactly where it is during your sessions if your controlling it through either the Synscan HC, EQMOD and a planetarium like Stellarium ( Skywatcher mounts only )
