Yes Rob I will most definately be ironing out that as my gear is packed away after each session.

This is a list of the menu items and some are not mentioned in the manual.

Thanks again Barry and also Rob,
That printout does look diferent to whats in my book I got with the mount. I'll have time to check it out some more tonight.
Now that I have this I will be putting down some location pads in a couple of places as I have a 1/2 acre block with some rather tall trees so it depends on what area of sky I want to concentrate on for the night as to where I setup, north or south.
Didn't think about astro work when I planted the trees 17 years back.
Nico.
