EQMOD "Add Points" method Alignment problem - EQMOD&CdC not Sync?

Hi all.
I am controlling my NEQ6-Pro via CdC and EQMOD.
I manually put the mount in Home Position and Polar Align with PoleMaster.
I Know I am well Polar Aligned.
Then I connect to CdC and EQMOD and try to perform an "Add Points" method Alignment.
I mark a star in CdC and issue a Slew command but the Mount goes to a different place than the star chosen.  
However - in CdC it shows that the mount is going to the Star I chose and it even that the reticule "lands"spot on the star I chose.
What am I doing wrong?

Thanks

Almost certainly a mismatch in one of the following IMO :-

1. Time - inc daylight saving for your location

2. Location - Long/Lat settings differ - I set them both manually in EQMOD and CDC

3. J2000 being used by one and JNOW by another app or visa versa - though this is least likely as it would just be not accurate
