a GoTo....?

Hi Caleb - is it one of those GoTo types of scopes/mounts with the hand controller and the single or double side "arm(s)" that holds the scope coming up from the base, which is on top of the tripod?

If so, you'll need to make sure the whole thing's level (a "bullet" bubble level of the round type used to level fridges is good - rested on the ep tray) and then just go through the "3 star" alignment after punching in your co-ordinates and time etc. If it's an older model they require pointing north (I think) even tho' we're in the southern hemisphere.....

Once you get a "alignment successful" read-out on the h/piece screen you can enable tracking and it should function.

If it aint this type (or a version similar) I've wasted our time....!
