Must be a Windows version only setting - but Windows version of Synscan has a settings file which you have to copy to not to put in the Lat/Long again. Plus on Windows version thats where Synscan puts Alignment data ( I think). So Android/Apple must just use last settings when updating.
CDC confuses the hell out of me for which Epoch to use - Synscan uses JNOW - APT can use JNOW or j2000 - but CDC on the stable version(new unstable version has changed to say the same - J2000,etc) just say Epoch this and that - sorry why not just say Jnow,J2000 like most other programs.
Looks like your problems have gone away - touch wood :-)

Still there

Didnt get a clear night over Easter and havent had a chance for a couple of weeks,but the last time was trouble free. I have stopped using the old ipad which kept crashing.The accuracy was back to near perfect....but I dont trust it and dont do any slewing from the bungalow any more just in case it goes crazy and tries to turn itself upside down. cheers Paul

I have a newer ipad which I use with the EQ6 and iphone for the HEQ 5. I dont know if swapping them around makes any difference or not. I go very gently with the synscan. It doesnt take much to upset it. I use the laptop for the camera and sharpcap I am waiting on a ZWO ASiair which I will use with the ipad for the grab and go setup for the camera instead of the carting a laptop when I go to the dark sky site. I will use the iphone for the synscan wifi separately. Thats the plan . I will let you know how that works out. cheers Paul
