From my reading of the instructions, it does not matter - As Long As You Are Consistent.
The point is that the final approach for GoTo needs to be the same as the approach you used to Align the telescope each viewing session.
This is to maximise the accuracy of placing the GoTo object in the centre of the eyepiece.
After struggling with slightly off alignments for some time, I developed a strategy that worked for my CPC1100. (an ALt/Az mount)
Do your alignments on your stars as normal (using the right and up approach buttons as the last movements, as per default).
Then do a GoTo those same stars after alignment, to test the accuracy.
Even if just slightly off, I would do the re-align function just to get it sopt on.
This always worked a charm for me.
As for slew direction for different speeds, I experimented a bit but eventually settled on default settings.
So that using high slew speeds (>=7) for finder scope movements
and slower slew speeds (up to 6) for eyepiece adjustments.
Because of the differences between optics of the "finder" as opposed to "through the eyepiece", they both "seem" to move the scope in the same relative direction.
You just need to remember what slew speeds are for what scope (main scope or finder scope).
Hope this helps you.
