Thats wierd on the slew pad issue...with mine (running ASCOM) the slew pad will only work is short bursts...if I bump it in the up direction I have to bump it in another direction before it will let me go up again...I finally gave up and hooked my gamepad up to EQMOD and it worked fine...
problem I am having is I polar aligned...then slewed to Sirius (thru EQALIGN's GOTO)to have a good bright star to focus and calibrate on...once calibrated I went to the align sequence and chose a star on the big dipper...well instead of slewing back around it went down from Sirius to the approximate location that the star would have been...180 degrees off...
should I have parked the scope back to the home position prior to trying to run the align sequence?
anyone that has it up and running want to do an english walkthrough?
