Synscan goto lat/long

[m37]

Hi all, quick question:

Got my exact lat/long in deg/min/sec. For purposes of entering into the Synscan unit which takes deg/min but not seconds, is it worth rounding minutes up or down based on whether the seconds are <=30, or >30? or does it really not matter?

cheers

I don't think it will matter that much as any corrections will be done when you come to do the alignment procedure

As Malc say's it will not make much difference but round it to whichever is the best option.

Does no harm.

Wow, that was quick! Cheers guys.

If more than 30' round up...is less round down. I have found it does not really alter the end result.
