Another attempt in getting Stellarmate to align, or GoTo and Solve, got me nowhere with just "Align Failure"'s message.

I am using a Short Tube Orion 80mm as the scope.
I am using an ioptron cube II pro with 8408 HC as a mount. The mount is currently using the IEQ45PRO driver in stellarmate. Is that the correct driver?
I am using an ZWO ASI120MC-S as the camera. Focused with a Bahtinov mask. I do not know if the setting are correct for the camera. I have tried using the "Default", "Small field", and "Large field" setting in stellarmate. Are catalogs needed to be downloaded to the Raspberry PI for these? Which is the correct setting to use? What is the acceptable error in alignment? Allot of times stellarmate reports a "0 x 0" as the FOV.
I am seeing approx. 6+ stars in the camera captures. Is that to few? Are my current sky conditions to poor to attempt EAA?

Other equipment, Raspberry PI 4 with 4 Gig, Stellarmate 64 bit, 32Gig SD card. Amazon Fire 7th generation tablet.

Tried using a .5x focal reducer on camera, but did not have enough InFocus and had to remove it

Is there something else I am missing.

Help!!!! Please!!!!
