I'm using eqmod (I have Skywatcher eq6-r) and wondered if there is a way to set a particular custom park position? I like to park my scope with the lens facing down towards the ground, I think it offers some protection to the lens as opposed to parking with scope pointing north.
How do I set a park position so that the counterweight bar is horizontal & the scope points to the ground (Alt = 0, Az = -90)? I seem to have everything working in this fabulous software, just can't seem to figure this out.
Oh cool, giving this a try (next clear night). Something pointing slightly down would be enough.
We have a ton of flower petals now flying around. I found a few sitting right on the lens yesterday morning.
It would be nice to be able to have that as my early morning auto park position.
