Hi TJ,
step 1
A few things to look at first see that the AZ and ALT steps are set right.
Try the + sign first if this does not work go with the – sign.
Do this under mode set up press enter, then spin the dial to setup ALT steps then Setup AZ steps.
Step 2
After this turn the AN on then under mode fix ALT ref press enter. Spin dial till it reads, Alt ref = 90
Auto adjust on. Press enter.
Step 3
Then exit then spin dial to Mode align star. Align to Antares, press enter once in centre of field of eyepiece. Then try Procyon. Then press enter.

If this did not work re do step 1.

Spin dial to mode catalogue then press enter then find Messier press enter the input M4 then move scope as per arrows. ( the AZ arrow can point the wrong way but just go opposite for now.)

See how you go.

TJ if you want to talk to someone on the phone at night you can pm me for my phone number and I can help. Or in the day ring Gary at Wildcard he will more than help you. It can be a bit hard at first, but you will get it and find once learned the AN will be a pleasure.
