2. Once I switch off the hand controller and switched on again, it asked me to align again. It does not retain the information I entered before. location was OK but the time is not changing.

>> The hand controller does not continue tracking time when it's switched off.

3. I tried auto two star alignment to see whether it worked. But all the stars I see are not correspondent to the sky I can see. For example, I get stars like albireo, deneb, polaris and vega - all in the northern hemisphere.

>> This will not work if the location reference is wrong (See 1.).

4. once the three star alignment done using three stars, I could not see the names of the stars by using 'undo' button as Allen suggested.

>> ??

After a long time, I have a really nice clear sky today but I could not do that much.

Hope you could help.
