Guiding and tracking

[IvanT]

Hi,

This may be a really silly question but, should sidereal tracking be turned on or off while guiding? With it off I found that PHD calibration worked without any intervention but after it went to guiding, the guide star tracked off the left edge of PHD until it eventually lost tracking. Has the tracking rate option on the HC to be set normally?

Yes, the guiding is just there to nudge the sidereal tracking back to where it should be.
