AZ-GTi with NINA

I have not aligned my mount yet. Just tinkering. In NINA, it shows a current RA and DEC which is not accurate. Does star alignment with Synscan fix that?

I don't know NINA, but from the experience with other apps you need to complete alignment using Synscan Pro first and make sure that the scope is tracking.
Also, it is better to use Synscan Pro (not Synscan) for EQ mode.

What does the Pro version do that the regular doesn't?
Thanks.

Both versions are free. Not sure what are intended differences (they look the same to me) but feedback on forums that Pro handles
EQ mode better (less crashes, weird behavior, etc).

From what I Remember when I had a Skywatcher alt/Az go to mount and updated the firmware the so called PRO version was for both EQ and Alt/Az mounts the only difference when starting the mount after installation was one had to choose between the 2 , but that was like 3 years ago and as I have sold it not sure now
