Sky-Watcher SynScan EQ5

Hello to everyone,
first time on forum, feeling so lost and stupid, new to GOTO system -that's me. I'm owner of new EQ5 mount with Synscan GOTO (SkyWatcher). Newtonian 8"f/4. Mount is facing South, Dec motor is on the same side of the receptacles of the mount, all current latit. and longit.entered , time (+10), and guess what? Motor points telescope to well known stars in totaly wrong directions. Sametames opposite, other times correct direction but points to the ground, the same for Moon or planets. No sense at all.
Is there anyone who can help me, I feel like there is something simple I've missed and obvious to many of you.
Help, Help
