Hi Guys.
Totally new to the game,
Got my HEQ5 PRO a few days ago, and thought of doing some initial steps today, and it has the New Polar Scope Engraving, where you have the three circles like a clock, and there is no image of Big Dipper or Cassiopeia.
When going through the manual at page 12 for Orientating Polar Scope Reticule, I rotated the RA till I got the 0 and 6 in the vertical axis with 0 on top,
BUT, the Counter Wt rod is pointing up into the sky ?
I though the Counter wt rod should point downwards to the earth.
So am I supposed to open some grub screws in the cope, and remove the scope and then rotate it correctly and fit it back so that 0 is pointing up.
I guess once I get this right, only then should I do the Aligning the Polar Scope Reticule, by looking at a far off object, and rotating the RA and making adjustments to three Grub Screws.
Regards.
