Ok what have i done wrong
Hi All
Last week i took my 12" SCT of it's peir to put on a wedge so i could polar align the scope.
Prior to that it was well aligned and all was well.
due to some wedge problems i decided to forget about the polar align bit and placed the scope back on the peir.
I realise that i have to realign the scope, ok that's not to hard as it all went to plan the first time.
Did exactly the same thing as before, but now the pointing is miles off, although it tells me that alignment was successful i sure isnt, nowwhere near any objected entered into it.
So i tried it again and then it told me it couldnt find home position, and instructed me to get it serviced, so i continued and it told me the align was again successful, then it decided to beep at me every ten seconds, and was still miles off.
Although the batteries are pretty new could this have an effect on the slewing etc. if they were flat so to speak.
I mean i only move it ten feet, put it on a table, and then moved it back on the peir.
So would anyone have any suggestions of what could be wrong.
Cheers leon
