Hi Martin,

Thank you.

Is the checkbox for a meridian flip on the hand controller as I will not be using a computer with the mount initially.

The East/West confused me because I had to reverse the settings after loading the latest firmware yesterday. I had to put the East value into the West box and the West value into the East...very confusing!

Can I force the mount to do a meridian flip at any point (..within the mount limits..) ?

Thanks.

Ross.

Ross there is a meridian flip in the hand controller.
If you press the button "goto" on the hand controller and then choose what object you want to goto, you will see the coordinates and in the bottom right hand side a small box that say's "flip", just click that box and on the goto the mount will do a meridian flip when necessary.

Cheers,
Martin.

Thank you Martin.

I'll go check it out.

If the weather holds out I might even be able to take the mount out and do some "real" image testing this weekend.

Thanks.

Ross.
