If you want to get familiar with the view you can do it how I did it initially using the LX200 in alt/azm mode aligned accurately on two stars.

Just slew directly down to the south till you get to -90 (the GPS model will hit a software stop). Use your widest angle eyepiece to see the view. It is very recognizable.
