LX200 pointing issues

Hi All

It's been a long while since I had the lx200 out - but I thought I would give it a go. Its lovely optics but it cant find a thing and it giving wrong info..

I've set it to Sydney, australia
set +10 GPS
set yes DLS
set the right time 21:12 and correct date 01-apr-2024

and it won't find M42 - says it rises at 0740
it will slew to Antares - which of course isn't up.


The only thing I can think of that might be causing this is a software setting that's leftover somewhere from the old PC connection over riding the inputs I have updated. (an obvious bug if I'm right)

Is there anyway of checking any of these settings without attaching it to the old PC which I no longer have..

thanks
Karen
