Hi DJDD,
Just a thought, do you have the Altitude set to the right angle/latitude for Melbourne? You didnt mention it and therefore it may have been missed in your setup?
Sorry if its a silly question, but you never know...
Also, doesnt the Eq6 pro have a polar scope? have a look through and see if its lined up visually in the starting position before you even start any goto/alignment tests with the hand controller.
After reading your method a couple of times it seems that you are expecting the mount to "find" Rigel or Achernar? I thought you had to point the mount towards Rigel, centre it in the MIDDLE of the eyepiece and then TELL the mount what star it is? Again, this might be a stupid question as I dont have a goto mount, but, if I dont ask, I dont get an answer to what i think you might be doing wrong....
Cheers
Chris
