Good morning, after successfully performing the alignment with two stars using hand controller #497 (43eg) - the telrad circle is on the correct sky position, I have a problem with the goto command on SkySafari with the following message: the telescope cannot rotate on the target coordinates because they are below the horizon. This is absolutely not true. I have checked telescope hand control #497 and SkySafari 6 pro setting without success. Control keys to move manually the telescope work perfectly. Can you help me? Kind Regards (Meade LX 90 - Ipod touch gen 5 - SkySafari pro 6 - SkyFi wireless)

Keiron Smith Florenzo,
Be sure to check your location settings in both the app and the hand controller, or...
Use the app to send time and location to the hand controller.
And when aligning your mount be sure to choose (if possible, more than two) target stars that quite far apart in the night sky.
Thanks!

Fiorenzo I give you more information. In real time (Meade HC date and time and location etc. same as true time and same as ipod date and time and location etc.) it works well. If i decide to do a simulation entering a certain date and time in the Meade HC, alignment succesful and then update the date and time in the Skysafari app, not works. Thank you very much for your time.

Keiron Smith Please attach a screenshot of the error message.
Did you try aligning on different stars?
Did you try aligning with more than two stars?

Fiorenzo Alignment on different stars - only with two stars.
