Setting a different home position on an nEQ6pro and ASIair with EQMod cable
Hi All,
I hope someone here can help me out. I’m currently in the process of designing a DIY obs and due to my height limitation, I need to have my mount “homed” as low as possible for when the roof comes on.
I have read as few posts around on the net and they say to do the following steps;
- Unlock the clutches and manually move your mount in the desired parked position
- Turn mount on
- Turn on ASIAir
- Sync your device (Date/time/position) to mount
- Slew mount to normal home position to prepare for Polar Align
- Polar Align mount
Now this is where things go wacky for me. If I tell the ASIair to go to a target (ie m42) the mount slews almost in the opposite direction and points into the ground. If I was to tell the ASIair to go to “Home” it will slew perfectly to the home position I require.
So what I’m I doing wrong?
Other than this little issue the Air/EQMod/nEQ6Pro have been working flawlessly in every other way.
