I have problem with (Autostar #497) Align

Has it ever occur to you when you make Calibration and Train motors and afterwards when you go for Align it goes in stars elsewhere and elsewhere!!!
The steps that I followed are below:
1. Reset
2. calibration motors
3. Train drive
4. Right hour and + 2 for my site
5. Daylight saves NO for Winter
6. Lat and Log rightly for the place that I am

The Train drive has been made with 12mm eyepiece at 2km nevertheless not only it does not go there that the star is supposed roughly to be but the motor of Dec axis collides with the body of RA motor. Today I tried again to put the last version in my Auto Star, I had used the same version when I had the old head, then he sent me the new head without however to change the remote control and it presented the same problems. I have telescope but I does not have driving. If any of you has mount with Autostar #497 and has faced similar problem I would be grateful if he could help me!!!

My Telescope is LXD-75 8” SC, and version of software autostar is 40Ef

George --

What does "+2 for my site" mean?

One other thing you might check: the Autostar 497 is also used on the ETX scopes -- if it thinks it's in Alt/Az instead of Polar it might explain everything being messed up.

(It's Setup > Telescope > Mount on Autostar II; not sure if it's the same on 497 or not.)

I think it may refer to 2hrs added to U.T.??

George,
Welcome to the boards!
Did you try resetting the autostar?

+2 because I am from Greece, sorry I didn’t say that!!!
