So good to see you my friend!! Best to point camera and telescope down at 45* so camera sensor doesn’t accumulate dew, never cover pointing up at north overnight, condensation will drip on sensor from telescope light train.

Hello Jeff! Thank you for the information. How you point it with Nina if is different than home position?

[@jefflucas_life]

@@GalaxyArtMedia EQMOD utilities also you can set home position when you launch NINA by set park position. However once power to mount is lost home position is lost.

[@GalaxyArtMedia]

I Think you can save a new home position.
