The angle that Sigma Octans presents to the viewer will move through 360 degrees over 24 hours. You should be able to rotate the polar scope to orientate it with the current position of Sigma Octans. The important thing then is to adjust the altitude and azimuth of the EQ3 so that the four star are neatly covered by the graticle markings.
