The following answers assume you are running the latest firmware 4.2g
You can do drive training in polar using a star, but the RA results aren't very accurate/repeatable.
As long as you can see a reasonable terrestrial target, you can do drive training on the wedge. To get the best results in RA, you need to have the OTA as close to DEC=0 as possible.
Assuming you have a target that matches these requirements
just tell the scope it is Alt/Az ( via the handbox ) and do a drive train as per normal. When done, tell it its Polar again.
For PEC, the only gotcha is it plays back inverted in the Sth hemi
Thus after training ( using Meades mechanisms), you need to invert it
