Some pointing accuracy and polar alignment problems during setup


 

I am not sure whether it¡¯s a daylight savings time issue or what. When I put in all the data including gps location, local time, and time zone, my mount doesn¡¯t go anywhere near the calibration stars it¡¯s supposed to go
to. I have tried changing to a fresh battery in the little back box, but that didn¡¯t seem to change anything. If I do big slews to where the stars are supposed to be I can eventually get things working, but it takes a lot of time to get there. The setup at my dark site is complicated enough without having to trouble shoot my mount every time. My Celestron mounts will ask for standard time or daylight savings time specifically but my Losmandy doesn¡¯t. I?rarely have those issues with my Celestron mounts so I have been using them instead, but it would sure be nice if I could figure out why my Losmandy has become difficult to set up. Sometimes I just need my big G11T
for my bigger SCT¡¯s when I am imaging.
