Horizon limits: scope outside limits. Nothing to abort

Hi all,
I'm going to use kstars+indi in order to manage my mount, an Eq6 pro.

Under INDI control panel --> Horizon, I tried to set the Altitude to 20:00:00, but after that on log tab the message :
Horizon Limits: Scope outside limits. Nothing to abort
is showed continuously

Where I'm wrong?

Thanks in advance
Paolo

I get this all the time also so I'd like to hear the true solution, but I think it's related to location settings. I'm hoping that if I ever actually get the mount aligned and synchronized these messages will go away.

But time to work on that is dependent on weather, which I have only cloudy (when I don't have to work).

If I remember correctly, if you have enabled the 'mount limits' then you might get this message. I have not used my observatory in months, my memory might be flaky...
Will let you know once I restart the box.

Any progress on this issue? My horizon is currently set to all zero. I see this message regularly and my tracking alt may be say 43deg and intermittently the Indi control panel shows alt as -71 or so.

Edit: My issue may have been related to the mount power supply. Disappeared when I moved to a different supply. Weird as the original was a 12V 8.5A device. Replaced with an identical unit.
