So I have been using the CEM25's built-in Polar Alignment iteration routine, which is the only way to align from the equator.
It works, and just requires me to flip back and forth between two stars for ALT and AZ adjustments.
I cannot see any stars within 20 to 30 degrees of either pole. Will the EKOS polar alignment routine work in such case?
I have not tried myself at night as we have had nasty skies all week.
I would be highly interested, if this worked - because nevertheless I am living at 48 deg north, I don't have a view to north from my balcony So without using a guiding scope it is really really problematic. I think, this is a scenario, which a lot of people might have. Or think, if you are in the mountains or have trees to the north.
Ok I tried the legacy tool, and works well. But it asks me to adjust the mount towards a “target” but I never saw a target. Did you remove that feature? The calculations were perfect and I used that to gain alignment. I am guiding right next w with a really tight tracking.
