What is the opposite of GOTO?


Recommended Posts

Serious question - I'm making a 'goto' box.

Obviously if I select a target and want to send the scope to it, it's 'GOTO TARGET'

But if I select a target then manually point the scope at it what is the name for the action of then setting the scopes current position to that target? Does 'ALIGN ON TARGET' make sense? If I could find something 14 or fewer characters that would be more aesthetically pleasing!

It's called 'SYNC' in Carte du Ciel. 

And elsewhere. That is very much the default term. The Sky, and other planetaria also call it that as do many handsets.

If you like a larf instead you could try Gotcha!
