eqmod mount goto issue

eqmod mount goto issue was created by Dean

I went through the process of clearing the mount model
tinyurl.com/y47c2pz4

I have my main camera for building the alignment model and my guide cam
running through an OAG strictly for guiding. If I try to pick a star to capture and solve
the first message the alignment module relays is:
World Coordinate System (WCS) is enabled. CCD rotation must be set either manually in the CCD driver
or by solving an image before proceeding to capture any further images, otherwise the WCS information may be invalid

In kstars if I pick say Kocab and select Goto, Indi control panel states:
[WARNING] Goto outside Horizon Limits.
and refuses to slew to the target so that I can try to capture and solve and build a mount model.
What am I not doing correctly ?

I know you're using the EQMod cable, but please connect the hand controller to your mount without connecting it to Ekos and go to Settings -> Elevation Limits and Disable the altitude limit.

Yes that would have been my other suggestion. Glad you solved it!
