Here ya go ….
Been using the Synscan polar alignment routine for 7 years now using EQ5 , HEQ5 and now EQ6-R pro and EQ8-R pro mounts with 8” to 12” Newts
The beauty of it is you don’t need a view of the South Celestial Pole
And it’s free ….

It takes me 10 to 15mins and 3 to 4 iterations to get down to around 1 arc minute PA error which is more than adequate for PHD2 guiding …..
