Kstars longitude different from indi was created by Ron Chambers

Just getting started with kstars and ekos/indi.  Using a skywatcher heq5 pro and running kstars on a macbook pro connected via usb. Wondering why my lat long coordinates are displayed as lat 49 37 11.00,  long -112 46 48.00 in kstars; lat 49 37 11.00,  long 247:13:12.0 in indi control panel. Thanks, Ron

Ron,
My setup does the same thing. I've never seen it cause a problem, though. I did the math once and if you go around positive from 0, you get to 247:13:12
Thanks,
Dave

Thanks Dave! It dawned on me what was going on there not long after I posted. I've had a few questions like this as I've been learning the software; most of the time I've held off before asking for help on the forum and I've been able to figure out what was going on but this one slipped through before I gave it enough time (and thought).
