An easy trick to set the date. This works with most:-

enter 20 in the first column. If it accepts the form is DD-mm-(YY)YY
If it does not work then the form is MM-DD-(YY)YY

Use Acrux as the 1st alignment star and Betelgeuse as the second. They are both easy to identify and are in favourable positions in the early evening.
