So Andrew, if my understanding is correct during the procedure of auto align I'll require to point the scope to North (using a compass) as requested and then align it to any of the bright stars that I can see on my south side?
In that case, it'll still do the same. Set the scope up and then turn it on. The GPS will automatically align and level the scope to north for you (it should do, at least). Then switch the star align to manual and choose two bright stars. The further apart they are, the better alignment, but if you choose stars too far apart, tracking errors will creep in. Then you'll need 3 or more stars to keep things running smoothly. When you've chosen your alignment stars, press "enter" on your autostar controller (for each star) and you'll be finished
