Meade LX90
Hi, I have a new Meade LX90 10" LNT with Autostar version 40EF. Although I've had it for 6 years I've only just started to use it now. I have performed a reset on Autostar after fitting new battery to LNT module. Telescope mount is set in ALT/AZ position.
When switched on, Autostar reads Press 0 to align or Mode for menu. On pressing 0 to align the scope goes through re-levelling, finding north, finding tilt, finding level & then starts slewing to the point where it tries to go over the vertical on the mount at which point I have to switch off as the motors are straining.
This exercise is being performed in the afternoon. In the evening this does not occur. Am i doing something wrong?
Cheers
