Folks,
Could someone please tell me what the HA time is referring to in this screenshot:



The reason I am asking is because I thought it meant "Clock time past the meridian" (assuming +ive number). However, in my screen shot that would make the transit time for my object 21:47 (local time). The problem is that the actual transit time for the object was 22:48. My mount has limit settings that will allow a flip request between 1 degree (4 mins) and 10 degrees (40 mins) past the meridian. As a result, when I told Ekos to "Flip if HA > 2 degrees", it kept failing. I eventually just unchecked the box and waited until the mount reported that it was far enough past the meridian and checked the box. This worked as expected and the mount performed the flip. Help.
