Mel, Maz and the NEQ6
The NEQ6 has this polar alignment 'feature' Any one know what to do with the numbers the handset throws up at the end of an alignment?
From memory the Mel (elevation) was +00.05º.30. Does that mean the mount is 5º above or needs to go 5º up to the pole? Had no problems with alignment routine or goto's, so should I ignore the Mel's and Maz's?
The manual in doesn't say what to do with the numbers.
The manual doesn't say what happens when a battery runs low either as I found out after 6 hours use last night...was running Skyfi as well off a 17amp jump start battery. All was great until the Dec axis ground to a noisy halt while slewing and the handset started flashing...thought I was in for a strip down for a bit, til a light bulb went on in the ol brain.
Input greatly appreciated..
