2.● Slew●to●star●near●the●zenith.●This●will●be●the●"Altitude●Star."

a)● Double●check●correct●mount●orientation.

b)● Line●up●finderscopes●crosshairs●with●direction●buttons

c)● Center●the●star●with●the●direction●buttons

d)● Re-calibrate.

3.● Set●Meridian●Delay:●

**Star●in●west●(RA●value●<●"z"●or●LST●value)●–●advance●

<1W>●●●●
