Synscan Question

First time user of Synscan on NQ6 Pro.
In 'stand alone' mode all buttons works.
With scope in "any position" and hooked up, only slewing works.
Do I need to polar align a s o first to make all buttons work?

You don't need to polar align for the handset to work with your mount. I founds it a little tricky to use a first. You basically need to hit the "esc" key to get to the other menu options.

So, the solution to my problem was simply that I had to press the enter button twice.
Simple, but unusual.

Glad you got it worked out! It's not the most intuitive device to use unfortunately, but you do get the hang of it after a few nights.

Being used to Argo Navis I found it quite easy. Except for the initial double click of the Enter button.

I am impressed with the usage of the numbers on each buttons, quick and easy.
