Successfully polar aligned and tracking well for 5 minutes unguided.

I will post a Stellarium view later to show 3 stars including Sigma Octans in line and very easy to recognise, even under suburban lighting - provides some extra cues.

Is there a way to put the EM200B in standby so that it doesn't rotate while polar aligning. I did read that the USDIII has a standby switch position, which the 200B does not?

Thanks again.

Cheers.

Rowland.
