Then I set SkyFi to 9600 baud. Then SkyVoyager on the iPhone to Meade LX200 Classic and Dobsonian mount. Then I pressed connect, and it seems to connect, but the crosshairs are pointing at the North Celestial Pole when I have the scope pointing at the Zenith. When I move the scope the crosshairs move but always as if the Zenith is the NCP. I don't know what to try next to fix this.

Any help appreciated.

Hi Noel,

Thanks for the post.

When you performed the alignment, were you outdoors at night aligning on real
stars with the telescope or indoors during the day just performing a faux
alignment?

Best Regards
