Hi!
Tonight, I hade a strange problem with the alignment module - first time ever. I was trying to center M81, and repeatedy ordered the mount to slew to it, and the capture, solve and slew to target. However, repeatedy it ended with M81 low in the field. I tried using WCS, clicking on the galaxy core, saying yes to slewing to those coordinates. And still, M81 in the lower part of the image. Finally, I manually, with the handcontrol of the mount, centred M81. And then, doing a capture and sync, and the click on "Show objects in image" I get the green square indicating M81. In the lower part of the image, NOT where it actually is. See attached screendump. Any ideas as to what is going on here? Any settings beeing off, or what might this be?
