"Synched" with what?
"Centred" on what?
what is "Home-reference" ?
what's the goal of this?

Hi,

Every night…
1- I verify with a level the horizontality of the base of the mount, 4 independent measures.
2- I start AutoSlew Version 5.2.3.1.
3- I verify my geographical position: Mount -> Location -> Latitude and longitude (with http://www.mapcoordinates.net/fr)
4- I verify the hour of the computer: http://www.horlogeparlante.com
5- I connect engines " Motor is ON ".
6- Balance Ok
