error message on phd2
I am practicing guiding i have took my dark files and then when i press loop it comes up with error message saying" calibration this far from the celestial equator will be error prone. for best results, calibrate at a declination of -20 to +20". I'm not sue how to do it can someone explain to me how in a easy friendly way of what to change and where.
Thanks Guys

Slew the scope to a star close to that area start the calibration from there.

Jim is 100% right, but if you change anything in your mount / guidescope optics, you will have to go through the calibration procedure again.
First time is never easy with software and I hope that helps.
